Avoidance-motivational intensity modulated the effect of negative emotion on working memory

open access: yesRoyal Society Open Science, 2023
Although many studies have explored the association between negative emotion and working memory, the findings remain controversial. The present study investigated the role of avoidance-motivational intensity in modulating the effect of negative emotion ...

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.

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 ...

Spatial Inferences in Narrative Comprehension: the Role of Verbal and Spatial Working Memory [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
During the comprehension of narrative texts, readers keep a mental representation of the location of protagonists and objects; a breach in spatial coherence is detected by longer online reading times (consistency effect).

Decoding Spatial Versus Non-spatial Processing in Auditory Working Memory

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience, 2021
ObjectiveResearch on visual working memory has shown that individual stimulus features are processed in both specialized sensory regions and higher cortical areas. Much less evidence exists for auditory working memory.

Individual Differences in Working Memory and the N2pc

open access: yesFrontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2021
The lateralized ERP N2pc component has been shown to be an effective marker of attentional object selection when elicited in a visual search task, specifically reflecting the selection of a target item among distractors.

Overlapping functional anatomy for working memory and visual search

open access: yes, 2009
Recent behavioural findings using dual-task paradigms demonstrate the importance of both spatial and non-spatial working memory processes in inefficient visual search (Anderson et al. in Exp Psychol 55:301-312, 2008).

Processing speed and visuospatial executive function predict visual working memory ability in older adults [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Visual working memory (VWM) has been shown to be particularly age sensitive. Determining which measures share variance with this cognitive ability in older adults may help to elucidate the key factors underlying the effects of aging.

Maintaining binding in working memory: Comparing the effects of intentional goals and incidental affordances [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Much research on memory for binding depends on incidental measures. However, if encoding associations benefits from conscious attention, then incidental measures of binding memory might not yield a sufficient understanding of how binding is accomplished.
