Expanding the mind's workspace: training and transfer effects with a complex working memory span task.
In the present study, a novel working memory (WM) training paradigm was used to test the malleability of WM capacity and to determine the extent to which the benefits of this training could be transferred to other cognitive skills. Training involved verbal and spatial versions of a complex WM span task designed to emphasize simultaneous storage and processing requirements. Participants who comp...
متن کاملThe 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 کاملMeasuring and modeling distraction by self-referential processing in a complex working memory span task
Two experiments using novel complex working memory span tasks were performed, both requiring the participants to remember a span of letters whilst being distracted by the processing of words. Word processing could either be selfreferential (SRP) or not. In the first experiment recall performance was compared between SRP and non-SRP conditions using the same words. In the second experiment, we c...
متن کاملDomain-general mechanisms of complex working memory span
A new fMRI complex working memory span paradigm was used to identify brain regions making domain-general contributions to working memory task performance. For both verbal and spatial versions of the task, complex working memory span performance increased the activity in lateral prefrontal, anterior cingulate, and parietal cortices during the Encoding, Maintenance, and Coordination phase of task...
متن کاملModeling working memory: an interference model of complex span.
This article introduces a new computational model for the complex-span task, the most popular task for studying working memory. SOB-CS is a two-layer neural network that associates distributed item representations with distributed, overlapping position markers. Memory capacity limits are explained by interference from a superposition of associations. Concurrent processing interferes with memory...
