Working memory load elicits attentional bias to threat [PDF]
, 2014 Anxious individuals tend to show attentional bias to threats and dangers; this is usually in-terpreted as a specific bias in threat-processing. However, they also tend to show general working memory and cognitive control impairments. We hypothesised that

Working Memory in Writing: Empirical Evidence From the Dual-Task Technique [PDF]
, 2003 The dual-task paradigm recently played a major role in understanding the role of working memory in writing. By reviewing recent findings in this field of research, this article highlights how the use of the dual-task technique allowed studying ...

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) is a genetic disease affecting motor neurons. Individuals with SMA experience mitochondrial dysfunction and oxidative stress. The aim of the study was to investigate the effect of an antioxidant and neuroprotective substance, ergothioneine (ERGO), on an SMNΔ7 mouse model of SMA.

Parietal contributions to visual working memory depend on task difficulty
Frontiers in Psychiatry, 2012 The nature of parietal contributions to working memory (WM) remain poorly understood but of considerable interest. We previously reported that posterior parietal damage selectively impaired WM probed by recognition (Berryhill & Olson, 2008a).

The evolution of working memory [PDF]
L’Année psychologique, 2013 To be able to maintain sensory information long enough to make decisions is a characteristic of all living things, including single cells, plants, and animals. The maintenance of sensory information despite interference is also a generic definition of working memory, and thus, its evolution began with the very first forms of life.

Variable Rate Working Memories for Phonetic Categorization and Invariant Speech Perception [PDF]
, 1993 Speech can be understood at widely varying production rates. A working memory is described for short-term storage of temporal lists of input items. The working memory is a cooperative-competitive neural network that automatically adjusts its integration ...

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Nicotinamide (NIC) and nicotinic acid (NIA) are proposed as stress signaling compounds in plants. Oxidative stress may lead to single strand breaks (SSB) in DNA, which activate poly(ADP‐ribose) polymerase (PARP). NIC and NIA are then formed from NAD. NIC and NIA can promote epigenetic changes leading to the expression of defense genes specific for the ...

A Flexible Model of Working Memory
Neuron, 2018 Working memory is fundamental to cognition, allowing one to hold information ‘in mind’ and use it to guide behavior. A defining characteristic of working memory is its flexibility: we can hold anything in mind.
