The Effects of Spark Training on Visual-Spatial Working Memory Operation in Children with Mental Retardation
Introduction: Mental retarded children who receive a wide range of health services, representing more than two percent of the population. Mental retardation is associated with significant constraints on mental performance and adaptive behavior as well as perceptual and practical skills. According to the studies, one of the important tools that can affect cognitive abilities, such as memory, is ...
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 کاملParieto-frontal interactions in visual-object and visual-spatial working memory: evidence from transcranial magnetic stimulation.
This study aimed to investigate whether transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) can induce selective working memory (WM) deficits of visual-object versus visual-spatial information in normal humans. Thirty-five healthy subjects performed two computerized visual n-back tasks, in which they were required to memorize spatial locations or abstract patterns. In a first series of experiments, unilate...
متن کاملThe effectiveness of mathematics education on numerical sense and visual-spatial working memory of girls with mathematical problems
Introduction: One of the problems of children with math disorders is the problem of working memory and sense of numbers, which can be increased by teaching math. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of mathematics education on the numerical sense and visual-spatial working memory of first-grade elementary school girls with mathematical problems. Method: The method of this re...
متن کاملOn the spatial interaction of visual working memory and attention: evidence for a global effect from memory-guided saccades.
Recent work indicates that covert visual attention and eye movements on the one hand, and covert visual attention and visual working memory on the other hand are closely interrelated. Two experiments address the question whether all three processes draw on the same spatial representations. Participants had to memorize a target location for a subsequent memory-guided saccade. During the memory i...
