The Evolution of Primate Short-Term Memory

open access: yesAnimal Behavior and Cognition, 2020
Short-term memory is implicated in a range of cognitive abilities and is critical for understanding primate cognitive evolution. To investigate the effects of phylogeny, ecology and sociality on short-term memory, we tested the largest and most diverse primate sample to date (421 non-human primates across 41 species) in an experimental delayed-response

Stimulus-specific mechanisms of visual short-term memory [PDF]

open access: yes, 1991
The retention of spatial information in visual short-term memory was assessed by measuring spatial frequency discrimination thresholds with a two-interval forced-choice task varying the time interval between the two gratings to be compared. The memory of

Brain Activation during Associative Short-Term Memory Maintenance is Not Predictive for Subsequent Retrieval

open access: yesFrontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2015
Performance on working memory (WM) tasks may partially be supported by long-term memory (LTM) processing. Hence, brain activation recently being implicated in WM may actually have been driven by (incidental) LTM formation. We examined which brain regions

Neural networks engaged in short-term memory rehearsal are disrupted by irrelevant speech in human subjects [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
Rehearsal mechanisms in human short-term memory are increasingly understood in the light of both behavioural and neuroanatomical findings. However, little is known about the cooperation of participating brain structures and how such cooperations are ...

Preregistered Replication of the Auditory Deviant Effect: A Robust Benchmark Finding

open access: yesJournal of Cognition, 2019
Short-term memory of visually presented lists of items is disrupted by auditory distraction. The auditory deviant effect refers to the finding that a sequence in which a single auditory event deviates from all other auditory objects disrupts serial ...

Fluctuations of Attention and Working Memory

open access: yesJournal of Cognition, 2019
Attention and working memory are intricately related, yet there remain ambiguities in how to best characterize this relationship. In his review, Oberauer formalizes several dimensions for the relationship between attention and working memory, focusing ...

Short-Term Memory Improvement After Simultaneous Interpretation Training [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
open4siSimultaneous interpretation (SI) is a cognitively demanding process that has been associated with enhanced memory and executive functions. It is unclear, however, if the previously evidenced interpreter advantages are developed through training ...

Prioritizing Targets and Minimizing Distraction Within Limited Capacity Working Memory

open access: yesJournal of Cognition, 2019
Oberauer (2019) maps out different perspectives that have emerged in exploring working memory and attention, and suggests particular ways in which these key aspects of cognition might operate in the service of successful goal completion.

The impact of Eysenck's extraversion-introversion personality dimension on prospective memory [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
Prospective memory (PM) is memory for future events. PM is a developing area of research (e.g., Brandimonte, Einstein & McDaniel, 1996) with recent work linking personality types and their utilisation of PM (Goschke & Kuhl, 1996; Searleman, 1996).
