Comparative Cognition: Comparing Human and Monkey Memory
Humans store a limited number of items in short-term working memory to perform subsequent operations. A newly described assessment of memory in rhesus monkeys suggests qualitative similarities and quantitative dissimilarities to humans.
متن کاملMulti-item working memory--a behavioral study.
Macaque monkeys were trained to recognize the repetition of one of the images already seen in a sequence of random length. On average, performance decreased with sequence length. However, this was due to a complex combination of factors, as follows: performance was found to decrease with the separation in the sequence of the test (repetition image) from the cue (its first appearance in the sequ...
متن کاملSingle-item memory, associative memory, and the human hippocampus.
We tested recognition memory for items and associations in memory-impaired patients with bilateral lesions thought to be limited to the hippocampal region. In Experiment 1 (Combined memory test), participants studied words and then took a memory test in which studied words, new words, studied word pairs, and recombined word pairs were presented in a mixed order. In Experiment 2 (Separated memor...
متن کاملMulti-item Memory in the Primate Prefrontal Cortex
The ability to retain multiple items in short-term memory is fundamental for cognition, yet almost nothing is known about its neural basis. To explore the mechanisms underlying this ability, we trained two monkeys to remember a sequence of two images across a short delay. We then recorded the activity of neurons from the lateral prefrontal cortex during task performance. We found that the major...
متن کاملCross-frequency coupling supports multi-item working memory in the human hippocampus.
Recent findings indicate that the hippocampus supports not only long-term memory encoding but also plays a role in working memory (WM) maintenance of multiple items; however, the neural mechanism underlying multi-item maintenance is still unclear. Theoretical work suggests that multiple items are being maintained by neural assemblies synchronized in the gamma frequency range (25-100 Hz) that ar...
