Sensory reformatting for a working visual memory

Trends in Cognitive Sciences
A core function of visual working memory (WM) is to sustain mental representations of recent visual inputs, thereby bridging moments of experience. This is thought to occur in part by recruiting early 'sensory' cortical regions, via flexible fronto-parietal mechanisms.

The Relationship Between the Mathematics Anxiety and Mathematics Achievement of Middle School Students: The Moderating Effect of Working Memory

Behavioral Sciences
To investigate the moderating role of working memory subcomponents in the relationship between mathematics anxiety and mathematics achievement among middle school students, this study selected 92 seventh-grade students (45 boys, 47 girls) from a middle ...

Memory limits : give us an answer! [PDF]

, 2000
Cowan has written a meticulous and thought-provoking review of the literature on short-term memory. However, reflections on one area of evidence, that of working memory span, shows the extent to which the research debate can be circumscribed by choice of

Identifying the functional architecture underlying multiple representations in visual working memory

This thesis aimed to investigate how visual working memory takes advantage of long-term knowledge in order to allow semantic elaboration in the form of chunking and the role of the central executive in this process.

Deployment of spatial attention towards locations in memory representations: an EEG study

, 2013
Recalling information from visual short-term memory (VSTM) involves the same neural mechanisms as attending to an actually perceived scene. In particular, retrieval from VSTM has been associated with orienting of visual attention towards a location ...

Short-term memory and working memory as indices of children’s cognitive skills. [PDF]

, 2001
In the current literature, empirical and conceptual distinctions have been drawn between a more or less passive short-term memory (STM) system and a more dynamic working memory (WM) system. Distinct tasks have been developed to measure their capacity and

Analogical Reasoning and Working Memory [PDF]

, 2012
Analogical Reasoning (AR) is the ability to find a relationship between two objects that is not based on featural (attribute-based) similarities. As such, reasoning by analogy is thought to be crucial in learning and scientific discovery. Analogies

Working memory and children's mathematical skills [PDF]

, 2005
Previous studies which examined the relationship between working memory (WM) ability and children's mathematics performance typically measured mathematics ability as a general skill (e.g.
