Motor threshold predicts working memory performance in healthy humans
Cognitive functions, such as working memory, depend on neuronal excitability in a distributed network of cortical regions. It is not known, however, if interindividual differences in cortical excitability are related to differences in working memory performance. In the present transcranial magnetic stimulation study, which included 188 healthy young subjects, we show that participants with lowe...
متن کاملWorking memory predicts sequence chunking Visuospatial working memory capacity predicts the organization of acquired explicit motor sequences
Studies have suggested that cognitive processes such as working memory and temporal control contribute to motor sequence learning (cf. Ashe et al., 2006). These processes engage overlapping brain regions with sequence learning, but concrete evidence has been lacking. In the current study, we determined whether limits in visuospatial working memory capacity and temporal control abilities affect ...
متن کاملWorking memory performance predicts subjective cognitive complaints in HIV infection.
The authors examined the contribution of working memory performance to subjective cognitive complaints in HIV infection beyond the influence of depressive symptoms. Thirty-six adults with HIV infection were administered neuropsychological (NP) tests of working memory, complex psychomotor efficiency, verbal learning, delayed recall, and questionnaires measuring depressive symptoms and cognitive ...
متن کاملAlpha phase locking predicts residual working memory performance in schizophrenia.
BACKGROUND Working memory (WM) deficits are a core feature of schizophrenia. Recent electrophysiological evidence indicates that the brain systems for visual encoding are especially impaired. However, patients still achieve performance levels clearly above chance, which indicates the existence of residual mechanisms supporting WM encoding. The present study presents evidence that alpha phase lo...
متن کاملVerbal Memory and Working Memory Impairment in Healthy Siblings of Patients with Schizophrenia
Objective: This study aimed to investigate the verbal memory and working memory impairment in healthy siblings of patients with schizophrenia. Methods: The purpose of this study was to compare cognitive deficits in siblings of the patients with schizophrenia and control group. A total of 35 unaffected siblings of patients with schizophrenia were selected from the relatives of the pat...
