Oculomotor preparation as a rehearsal mechanism in spatial working memory
There is little consensus regarding the specific processes responsible for encoding, maintenance, and retrieval of information in visuo-spatial working memory (VSWM). One influential theory is that VSWM may involve activation of the eye-movement (oculomotor) system. In this study we experimentally prevented healthy participants from planning or executing saccadic eye-movements during the encodi...
متن کاملA spatial oculomotor memory-task performance produces a task-related slow shift in human electroencephalography.
Electroencephalographic (EEG) deflections in humans related to the performance of memory-guided saccades were studied in this work. The EEG deflections were recorded during 2 spatial oculomotor delayed response tasks in which the subject was instructed to make a saccade either to the right or to the left depending on the spatial location of the cue which had been shown in the beginning of the d...
متن کاملRepresentational pseudoneglect in an auditory-driven spatial working memory task.
Two experiments explored lateralized biases in mental representations of matrix patterns formed from aural verbal descriptions. Healthy participants listened, either monaurally or binaurally, to verbal descriptions of 6 by 3 matrix patterns and were asked to form a mental representation of each pattern. In Experiment 1, participants were asked to judge which half of the matrix, left or right, c...
متن کاملModality-specific control processes in verbal versus spatial working memory.
Over the past decade, neuroimaging and electrophysiological studies of working memory (WM) have made progress in distinguishing the neural substrates of central executive (CE) functions from substrates of temporary storage subsystems. However, the degree to which CE-related processes and their substrates may be further fractionated is less clear. The present study measured event-related potenti...
متن کاملNeuropsychological and oculomotor correlates of spatial working memory performance in schizophrenia patients and controls.
Recent reports of spatial working memory deficits in schizophrenia provide evidence for dorsolateral prefrontal cortical (DLPFC) dysfunction. However, the question of how spatial working memory performance relates to other task impairments in schizophrenia considered reflective of frontal dysfunction, such as the Wisconsin Card Sorting Test (WCST) and smooth pursuit eye tracking, has been large...
