Spatial working memory in Alzheimer’s disease: A study using the Corsi block-tapping test
The Corsi block-tapping test was developed as a non-verbal task to measure spatial memory. In this test, cubes are tapped by the examiner in novel sequences of increasing length after which participants are required to reproduce each sequence immediately. Objectives To evaluate spatial working memory in Alzheimer's disease (AD) patients. Methods 30 elderly control subjects (21 women, 9 men)...
متن کاملComputerization of the standard corsi block-tapping task affects its underlying cognitive concepts: a pilot study.
The tablet computer initiates an important step toward computerized administration of neuropsychological tests. Because of its lack of standardization, the Corsi Block-Tapping Task could benefit from advantages inherent to computerization. This task, which requires reproduction of a sequence of movements by tapping blocks as demonstrated by an examiner, is widely used as a representative of vis...
متن کاملThe human prefrontal and parietal association cortices are involved in NO-GO performances: an event-related fMRI study.
One of the important roles of the prefrontal cortex is inhibition of movement. We applied an event-related functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) technique to observe changes in fMRI signals of the entire brain during a GO/NO-GO task to identify the functional fields activated in relation to the NO-GO decision. Eleven normal subjects participated in the study, which consisted of a random ...
متن کاملeCorsi: implementation and testing of the Corsi block-tapping task for digital tablets
The Corsi block-tapping task is a widely used test to assess visuo-spatial working memory. The test is traditionally administered using nine square blocks positioned on a wooden board, but numerous digital versions have been developed. In this study, we tested one-hundred and seven participants divided into two age groups (18-30 and over 50) in forward, backward and supraspan-forward conditions...
متن کاملReliability of working memory assessment in neurocognitive disorders: a study of the Digit Span and Corsi Block-Tapping tasks.
Working memory (WM) is a core aspect of executive function, related to temporary storage of information to be manipulated and used by other cognitive processes. Despite the lack of a consensus definition and theoretical model to explain this function, its assessment is a key aspect in clinical practice, both for diagnostic and intervention purposes. Furthermore, as a cognitive process, WM is ke...
