The neural correlates of human working memory for haptically explored object orientations.
Skillful object manipulation requires that haptically explored spatial object characteristics like orientation be adequately represented in working memory. In the current functional magnetic resonance imaging study, healthy right-handed participants explored a bar-shaped reference object with the left hand, memorizing its orientation. After a variable delay (0.5, 5, or 10 s), participants used ...
متن کاملNeural correlates of vibrotactile working memory in the human brain.
Recent neurophysiological studies in macaques identified a network of brain regions related to vibrotactile working memory (WM), including somatosensory, motor, premotor, and prefrontal cortex. In these studies, monkeys decided which of two vibrotactile stimuli that were sequentially applied to their fingertips and separated by a short delay had the higher vibration frequency. Using the same ta...
متن کاملNeural correlates of consolidation in working memory.
Many of our daily activities rely on a brain system called working memory, which implements our ability to encode information for short-term maintenance, possible manipulation, and retrieval. A recent intracranial study of patients performing a paradigmatic working memory task revealed that the maintenance of information involves a distributed network of oscillations in the gamma band (>40 Hz)....
متن کاملThe Neural Correlates of Spatial and Object Working Memory in Elderly and Parkinson's Disease Subjects
This fMRI study deals with the neural correlates of spatial and objects working memory (SWM and OWM) in elderly subjects (ESs) and idiopathic Parkinson's disease (IPD). Normal aging and IPD can be associated with a WM decline. In IPD population, some studies reported similar SWM and OWM deficits; others reported a greater SWM than OWM impairment. In the present fMRI research, we investigated wh...
متن کاملNeural correlates of the object-recall process in semantic memory.
The recall of an object from features is a specific operation in semantic memory in which the thalamus and pre-supplementary motor area (pre-SMA) are integrally involved. Other higher-order semantic cortices are also likely to be involved. We used the object-recall-from-features paradigm, with more sensitive scanning techniques and larger sample size, to replicate and extend our previous result...
