Working memory capacity predicts dopamine synthesis capacity in the human striatum.
Evidence from psychopharmacological research has revealed that dopamine receptor agents have opposite effects on cognitive function depending on baseline levels of working memory capacity. These contrasting effects have been interpreted to reflect differential baseline levels of dopamine. Here we demonstrate for the first time that working memory capacity as measured by listening span predicts ...
متن کاملSpatial working memory capacity predicts bias in estimates of location.
Spatial memory research has attributed systematic bias in location estimates to a combination of a noisy memory trace with a prior structure that people impose on the space. Little is known about intraindividual stability and interindividual variation in these patterns of bias. In the current work, we align recent empirical and theoretical work on working memory capacity limits and spatial memo...
متن کاملThe Effect of Working Memory Training on Working Memory Capacity and Performance of Novice Karateka
Objective: This study aimed to investigate the effect of working memory (WM) training on WM capacity and performance of novice karate practitioners (karateka). Methods: Research method is quasi-experimental with a pretest posttest control group design. A total of 24 karate practitioners were selected among Alborz (Alborz Province, iran) novice karateka by convenience sampling me...
متن کاملHigh Working Memory Capacity Predicts Less Retrieval Induced Forgetting
BACKGROUND Working Memory Capacity (WMC) is thought to be related to executive control and focused memory search abilities. These two hypotheses make contrasting predictions regarding the effects of retrieval on forgetting. Executive control during memory retrieval is believed to lead to retrieval induced forgetting (RIFO) because inhibition of competing memory traces during retrieval renders t...
متن کاملEffect of Working Memory Training on the Improving Reading Performance and Working Memory Capacity in Children with Dyslexia
Introduction: In recent years, researchers have focused on students who have challenges in learning, and these problems effect on their educational process. This study aimed to investigate the effect of working memory training programs on the improving reading performance and working memory capacity in children with dyslexia. Method: The research method was quasi-experimental. In this regard 30...
