Concurrent performance of two working memory tasks: potential mechanisms of interference.
When two tasks are performed simultaneously, performance often deteriorates, with concomitant increases in reaction time and error rate. Three potential neurophysiological mechanisms behind this deterioration in performance have been considered here: (i) dual-task performance requires additional cognitive operations and activation of cortical areas in addition to those active during single-task...
متن کاملLong-term memory-based control of attention in multi-step tasks requires working memory: evidence from domain-specific interference
Evidence for long-term memory (LTM)-based control of attention has been found during the execution of highly practiced multi-step tasks. However, does LTM directly control for attention or are working memory (WM) processes involved? In the present study, this question was investigated with a dual-task paradigm. Participants executed either a highly practiced visuospatial sensorimotor task (spee...
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 کاملThe Performance of Bilingual and Monolingual Children on Working Memory Tasks
Objectives: The purpose of this research was to explore the possible differences in the working memory of monolingual (Persian) and bilingual (Persian-Baluchi) children. We wanted to examine if there is a statistically significant relationship between working memory and bilingualism. Methods: Four working memory (WM) tests, assessing three WM components, were administered to 140 second...
متن کاملWorking-Memory Performance 1 Running head: WORKING-MEMORY PERFORMANCE The Evidence for A Guessing State in Working-Memory Judgments
We present the results of four experiments designed to assess whether there is a guessing component to visual working memory, where guessing refers to responses that do not reflect the presented stimuli. The presence of guessing is important because such components are intimately consistent with discrete-slot view of WM and inconsistent with many competing views. We use the production paradigm ...
