Cerebro-Cerebellar Pathways for Verbal Working Memory [PDF]
The current study examined the structural and functional connectivity of the cerebro-cerebellar network of verbal working memory as proposed by Chen and Desmond (2005a). Diffusion spectrum imaging was employed to establish structural connectivity between

Motor system contributions to verbal and non-verbal working memory
Working memory (WM) involves the ability to maintain and manipulate information held in mind. Neuroimaging studies have shown that secondary motor areas activate during WM for verbal content (e.g., words or letters), in the absence of primary motor area ...

Disruption of Cerebellar Prediction in Verbal Working Memory [PDF]
Mounting evidence suggests that the right cerebellum contributes to verbal working memory, but the functional role of this contribution remains unclear. In an established theory of motor control, the cerebellum is thought to predict sensory consequences ...

Verbal Encoding Strategies in Visuo-Spatial Working Memory
Visual working memory and verbal storage are often investigated independently of one another. However, a growing body of evidence suggests that naming visual stimuli can provide an advantage in performance during visual working memory tasks. On the other

Verbal working memory in ADHD children [PDF]
According to neuropsychological models of ADHD, deficits of working memory are regarded as an essential cognitive phenotype for the disorder (Barkley, 1997; Castellanos & Tannock, 2002; Martinussen & Tannock, 2006). The primary goal of the present study was to compare the functioning of the phonological loop and the central executive ...

Metabolic Connectivity as Index of Verbal Working Memory [PDF]
Positron emission tomography (PET) data are commonly analyzed in terms of regional intensity, while covariant information is not taken into account. Here, we searched for network correlates of healthy cognitive function in resting state PET data. PET with [ 18 F]-fluorodeoxyglucose and a test

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

Verbal working memory and sentence comprehension
This target article discusses the verbal working memory system used in sentence comprehension. We review the concept of working memory as a short-duration system in which small amounts of information are simultaneously stored and manipulated in the service of accomplishing a task.

Effect of verbal working memory load during the oculomotor activity in visual search
The structure of working memory has components responsible for the storage of verbal and visualspatial information; despite the fairly detailed study of the functions and mechanisms of their work, the question of their mutual influence is ...
