Comparison of Working Memory Performance using Auditory N-back Task in Adults who do and do not Stutter

Journal of Indian Speech Language & Hearing Association
Introduction: Working memory is considered to be essential for higher-level cognition and phonological encoding. The N-back task is a popular test for evaluating working memory capacity.

Rhyme Awareness in Children With Normal Hearing and Children With Cochlear Implants: An Exploratory Study

Frontiers in Psychology, 2019
Phonological awareness is a critical component of phonological processing that predicts children’s literacy outcomes. Phonological awareness skills enable children to think about the sound structure of words and facilitates decoding and the analysis of ...

Separability of active semantic and phonological maintenance in verbal working memory. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2018
Models of verbal working memory that incorporate active memory maintenance, long-term memory networks, and attention control have been developed. Current studies suggest that semantic representations of words, evoked via long-term memory networks, are ...

Computer simulations of developmental change: The contributions of working memory capacity and long-term knowledge [PDF]

, 2008
Increasing working memory (WM) capacity is often cited as a major influence on children’s development and yet WM capacity is difficult to examine independently of long-term knowledge.

Schooling Trajectories and the Development of Brain Dynamics: A Comparative Study of Montessori and Traditional Education

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
We investigate whether Montessori and traditional schooling systems shape the developmental trajectory of large‐scale brain dynamics in different ways. We quantify the arrow of time (“non‐reversibility”) in neural activity during resting state and movie‐watching, revealing distinct maturational patterns.

Foreign Language Learning in Older Adults Modifies Resting‐State Functional Connectivity Between the Subcortical Structures and the Cortex

AGING MEDICINE, EarlyView.
Foreign language learning in older adults reorganizes thalamic and caudate connectivity, in a process topographically overlapping with the expression of receptors and genes related to neuroplasticity. ABSTRACT Objectives Neuroimaging studies suggest that Foreign Language Learning (FLL) influences resting‐state functional connectivity (rs‐FC) within the
