Vestibular pathology and spatial working memory

open access: yesActa Otorhinolaryngologica Italica, 2020
Thanks to wide central connections the vestibular system is not merely involved in reflexes, but it is also connected to cognitive processes. A growing body of literature suggests that it has a substantial impact on cognitive function. These cognitive interactions include memory, attention, mental imagery, body awareness and social cognition.

Mathematics Students Demonstrate Superior Visuo-Spatial Working Memory to Humanities Students Under Conditions of Low Central Executive Processing Load

open access: yesJournal of Numerical Cognition, 2019
Previous research has demonstrated that working memory performance is linked to mathematics achievement. Most previous studies have involved children and arithmetic rather than more advanced forms of mathematics.

Multiple spatial frames for immersive working memory

open access: yesNature Human Behaviour, 2022
As we move around, relevant information that disappears from sight can still be held in working memory to serve upcoming behaviour. How we maintain and select visual information as we move through the environment remains poorly understood because most laboratory tasks of working memory rely on removing visual material while participants remain still ...

Brain areas involved in spatial working memory [PDF]

open access: yesNeuropsychologia, 2006
Spatial working memory entails the ability to keep spatial information active in working memory over a short period of time. To study the areas of the brain that are involved in spatial working memory, a group of stroke patients was tested with a spatial search task.

Spatial working memory and inhibition of return [PDF]

open access: yesPsychonomic Bulletin & Review, 2006
Recently we showed that maintaining a location in spatial working memory affects saccadic eye movement trajectories, in that the eyes deviate away from the remembered location (Theeuwes, Olivers, and Chizk, 2005). Such saccade deviations are assumed to be the result of inhibitory processes within the oculomotor system.

Reward and loss incentives improve spatial working memory by shaping trial-by-trial posterior frontoparietal signals

open access: yesNeuroImage, 2022
Integrating motivational signals with cognition is critical for goal-directed activities. The mechanisms that link neural changes with motivated working memory continue to be understood.

Effectiveness of working memory on visual-spatial working memory performance of pre-school children with learning problem at risk [PDF]

open access: yesروانشناسی و روانپزشکی شناخت, 2022
Introduction: Specific learning difficulties are the existence of disorder in one or more of the basic psychological processes which play a role in the process of understanding and using spoken or written language.

Allocentric Spatial Memory Performance in a Virtual Reality-Based Task is Conditioned by Visuospatial Working Memory Capacity

open access: yesBrain Sciences, 2020
Traditionally, the medial temporal lobe has been considered a key brain region for spatial memory. Nevertheless, executive functions, such as working memory, also play an important role in complex behaviors, such as spatial navigation.

Auditory and visual spatial working memory [PDF]

open access: yesMemory & Cognition, 2006
A series of experiments compared short-term memory for object locations in the auditory and visual modalities. The stimulus materials consisted of sounds and pictures presented at different locations in space. Items were presented in pure- or mixed-modality lists of increasing length.
