Selective impairment in visual short-term memory binding

Selective impairment in visual short-term memory binding.

Dissociations within binding in perception have been reported after brain damage. In short-term memory (STM), feature binding and feature processing appear to rely on separate processes. However, dissociations within binding in STM following brain damage have not been reported to date. We report on the case E.S. who, after removal of a left medial sphenoid ridge meningioma, developed a selectiv...

Binding in short-term visual memory.

The integration of complex information in working memory, and its effect on capacity, shape the limits of conscious cognition. The literature conflicts on whether short-term visual memory represents information as integrated objects. A change-detection paradigm using objects defined by color with location or shape was used to investigate binding in short-term visual memory. Results showed that ...

[Visual short-term memory in children with specific language impairment].

BACKGROUND relationship between Specific Language Impairment (SLI) and visual short-term memory. AIM to compare the performance of children with SLI to a control group of children with normal language development in tasks involving visual short-term memory. METHOD subjects were 20 SLI children (ages 3;0 to 5;11), and 29 children with normal language development (ages 2;0 to 4;11), assessed ...

Patients with Mild Cognitive Impairment Show Lower Visual Short-Term Memory Performance in Feature Binding Tasks

BACKGROUND Early cognitive changes in people at risk of developing dementia may be detected using behavioral tests that examine the performance of typically affected brain areas, such as the hippocampi. An important cognitive function supported by the hippocampi is memory binding, in which object features are associated to create a unified percept. AIM To compare visual short-term memory (VST...
