The Effect of Working Memory Rehabilitation on Visual Memory and Memory Span
Introduction: Age-related cognitive decline or cognitive aging is largely the result of structural and functional decline in specific areas of the brain, but lifestyle also contributes to this cognitive decline. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of working memory rehabilitation on visual memory and memory span in ageing. Methods: This was a quasi-experimental study with pret...
متن کاملThe Effect of Dual Task Interference on Gait in Aging: Role of Working Memory Components
The purpose of the present study was to investigate the effect of concurrent cognitive tasks activating phonological loop and visuospatial scratchpad of working memory on gait in older adults.12 older adults with the age range of 65-70 years performed walking trials in 3 counterbalanced testing conditions including single walking, walking while performing visuospatial task and walking while per...

15 صفحه اولStructured Representations in Visual Working Memory
How much visual information can we hold in mind at once? A large body of research has attempted to quantify the capacity of visual working memory by focusing on how many individual objects or visual features can be actively maintained in memory. This thesis presents a novel theoretical framework for understanding working memory capacity, suggesting that our memory representations are complex an...
متن کاملModeling Continuous Representations in Visual Working Memory
Visual working memory (VWM) is a crucial part of our cognitive system. Currently there is an active debate how the apparent limitations of VWM should be described. Limited-slot and flexible-resource theories are discussed, but so far the temporal dynamics of representations stored in VWM are not fully understood. In this paper we present data that supports the notion of dynamic VWM contents wit...
