Working Memory Replay Prioritizes Weakly Attended Events
One view of working memory posits that maintaining a series of events requires their sequential and equal mnemonic replay. Another view is that the content of working memory maintenance is prioritized by attention. We decoded the dynamics for retaining a sequence of items using magnetoencephalography, wherein participants encoded sequences of three stimuli depicting a face, a manufactured objec...
متن کاملAn obesogenic bias in women's spatial memory for high calorie snack food.
To help maintain a positive energy balance in ancestral human habitats, evolution appears to have designed a functional bias in spatial memory that enhances our ability to remember the location of high-calorie foodstuffs. Here, we investigated whether this functional bias has obesogenic consequences for individuals living in a modern urban environment. Spatial memory, dietary intentions, and pe...
متن کاملUpdating Human Spatial Memory
Humans have developed different ways to represent spatial information, both in memory and in off-line formats, such as maps and spatial descriptions. These representational systems have developed to deal with environment complexity, the many goals one might have within an environment, and the changes that occur both within the environment and pertaining to how it is used. The present chapter di...
متن کاملHigh-capacity spatial contextual memory.
Humans show implicit memory for complex spatial layouts, which aids in subsequent processing of these layouts. Research efforts in the past 5 years have focused primarily on a single session of training involving a dozen repeated displays. Yet every day, people encounter many more visual layouts than were presented in such experiments. In this study, we trained subjects to learn 60 repeated dis...
متن کاملHuman hippocampal replay during rest prioritizes weakly-learned information and predicts memory performance
There is now extensive evidence that the hippocampus replays experiences during quiet rest periods, and that this replay benefits subsequent memory. A critical open question is how memories are prioritized for replay during these offline periods. We addressed this question in an experiment in which participants learned the features of 15 objects and then underwent fMRI scanning to track item-le...
