The 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 کاملVisual Working Memory Contents Bias Ambiguous Structure from Motion Perception
The way we perceive the visual world depends crucially on the state of the observer. In the present study we show that what we are holding in working memory (WM) can bias the way we perceive ambiguous structure from motion stimuli. Holding in memory the percept of an unambiguously rotating sphere influenced the perceived direction of motion of an ambiguously rotating sphere presented shortly th...
متن کاملVisual working memory contaminates perception.
Indirect evidence suggests that the contents of visual working memory may be maintained within sensory areas early in the visual hierarchy. We tested this possibility using a well-studied motion repulsion phenomenon in which perception of one direction of motion is distorted when another direction of motion is viewed simultaneously. We found that observers misperceived the actual direction of m...
متن کاملVisual Working Memory Capacity Does Not Modulate the Feature-Based Information Filtering in Visual Working Memory
BACKGROUND The limited capacity of visual working memory (VWM) requires us to select the task relevant information and filter out the irrelevant information efficiently. Previous studies showed that the individual differences in VWM capacity dramatically influenced the way we filtered out the distracters displayed in distinct spatial-locations: low-capacity individuals were poorer at filtering ...
متن کاملBipartite Structure of Working Memory
The problem whether working memory (WM) structure is unitary or bipartite is being analysed in the present paper. We modified an original unitary ACT-R theory introducing a model of WM that assumes its two distinct substructures: a focus of attention (FA) and an activated part of memory outside FA. The access to the focus of attention is serial while the retrieval from the activated part of mem...
