Proactive interference and practice effects in visuospatial working memory span task performance.
In the current study the influence of proactive interference (PI) and practice on recall from a visuospatial working memory (WM) task was examined. Participants completed a visuospatial WM span task under either high-PI conditions (a traditional span task) or low-PI conditions (a span task with breaks between trials). Trials of each length (i.e., two to five to-be-remembered items) were equally...
متن کاملAn improved spatial span test of visuospatial memory.
In the widely used Corsi Block Test and Wechsler Spatial Span Tests, participants must reproduce sequences of blocks in the order touched by the examiner until two trials are missed at the same sequence length. The examiner records either the maximum number of blocks correctly reported or the total number of correct lists. Here, we describe a computerized spatial span test (C-SST) that uses psy...
متن کاملNeural correlates of spatial working memory load in a delayed match-to-sample saccade task
We propose a new way to identify the neural correlates of memory load in a delayed match-to-sample saccade task with a constant perceptual load. Two conditions were compared with low and high memory loads. In the low-load condition, a rectangular shaped probe defined by its color and orientation was presented centrally. After a delay period, four stimuli were presented peripherally, one in each...
متن کاملVisuospatial working memory and the processing of spatial descriptions.
The dual-task paradigm was used to determine whether the spatial, visual and verbal components of working memory are engaged in the processing of spatial descriptions. Participants listened to route or survey descriptions of urban-like spatial environments and then drew corresponding maps. The position of each new landmark was described either in terms of the direction to move toward this landm...
متن کاملThe generality of working memory capacity: a latent-variable approach to verbal and visuospatial memory span and reasoning.
A latent-variable study examined whether verbal and visuospatial working memory (WM) capacity measures reflect a primarily domain-general construct by testing 236 participants in 3 span tests each of verbal WM. visuospatial WM, verbal short-term memory (STM), and visuospatial STM. as well as in tests of verbal and spatial reasoning and general fluid intelligence (Gf). Confirmatory' factor analy...
