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

Auditory closure with visual cues: Relationship with working memory and semantic memory [PDF]
The role of working memory (WM) and long-term lexical-semantic memory (LTM) in the perception of interrupted speech with and without visual cues, was studied in 29 native English speakers. Perceptual stimuli were periodically interrupted sentences filled

The role of the frontal cortex in memory: an investigation of the Von Restorff effect [PDF]
Evidence from neuropsychology and neuroimaging indicate that the pre-frontal cortex (PFC) plays an important role in human memory. Although frontal patients are able to form new memories, these memories appear qualitatively different from those of ...

Semantic Compression of Episodic Memories [PDF]
Storing knowledge of an agent's environment in the form of a probabilistic generative model has been established as a crucial ingredient in a multitude of cognitive tasks. Perception has been formalised as probabilistic inference over the state of latent

Explaining semantic short-term memory deficits:evidence for the critical role of semantic control [PDF]
Patients with apparently selective short-term memory (STM) deficits for semantic information have played an important role in developing multi-store theories of STM and challenge the idea that verbal STM is supported by maintaining activation in the ...
