Hippocampal-prefrontal theta-gamma coupling during performance of a spatial working memory task

open access: yesNature Communications, 2017
Cross-frequency coupling supports the organization of brain rhythms and is present during a range of cognitive functions. However, little is known about whether and how long-range cross-frequency coupling across distant brain regions subserves working ...

Interference resolution in spatial working memory

open access: yesNeuroImage, 2004
Anterior cingulate and lateral inferior prefrontal cortex (PFC) are considered important for conflict monitoring and interference resolution in many verbal tasks. We studied interference resolution in a spatial working memory task using event-related fMRI.

Microsaccades and Visual-Spatial Working Memory

open access: yesJournal of Eye Movement Research, 2012
Observers performed working memory tasks at varying retinal eccentricities, fixating centrally while microsaccade rates and directions were monitored. We show that microsaccades generate no interference in a working memory task, indicating that spatial ...

Chatting While Walking Does Not Interfere with Topographical Working Memory

open access: yesBrain Sciences, 2020
In the present study, we employed the dual task technique to explore the role of language in topographical working memory when landmarks are present along the path.

Visual and Spatial Working Memory Abilities Predict Early Math Skills: A Longitudinal Study

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychology, 2019
This study aimed to explore the influence of the visuospatial active working memory subcomponents on early math skills in young children, followed longitudinally along the first 2 years of primary school. We administered tests investigating visual active

Neuronal Correlates of Spatial Working Memory in the Endbrain of Crows.

open access: yesCurrent Biology, 2019
Birds are renowned for their excellent spatial cognition. Corvid songbirds, in particular, rely on explicit representation of spatial cues in memory when caching food and retrieving caches for later consumption.

Spatial working memory alters the efficacy of input to visual cortex

open access: yesNature Communications, 2017
Prefrontal cortex modulates sensory signals in extrastriate visual cortex, in part via its direct projections from the frontal eye field (FEF), an area involved in selective attention.

Spatial Working Memory Counts: Evidence for a Specific Association Between Visuo-spatial Working Memory and Arithmetic in Children

open access: yeslnternational Electronic Journal of Elementary Education, 2022
We examined the role of visuo-spatial working memory in different types of arithmetic ability in children. Previous research had suggested that arithmetic is not a single entity (Dowker, 2005, 2015), and also that visuo-spatial working memory is specifically involved in mathematical cognition (McKenzie et al., 2003) There has, however, been little ...

Testing Conclusions From Functional Imaging of Working Memory with Data From Acute Stroke

open access: yesBehavioural Neurology, 2007
Functional imaging studies indicate that the left hemisphere mediates verbal working memory, while the right hemisphere mediates both verbal and spatial working memory.
