Stimulus-specific suppression preserves information in auditory short-term memory.
Philosophers and scientists have puzzled for millennia over how perceptual information is stored in short-term memory. Some have suggested that early sensory representations are involved, but their precise role has remained unclear. The current study asks whether auditory cortex shows sustained frequency-specific activation while sounds are maintained in short-term memory using high-resolution ...
متن کاملStimulus information and stimulus interference in bisensory short-term memory
An attempt was made to determine if Ss' strategy of retaining stimulus material changed under conditions of bisensory simultaneous stimulation when one of the two inputs was relevant information as opposed to interference. Thus in Group 1 Ss were stimulated bisensorily, attended to both inputs (information), but recalled only one input. Ss in Group 2 were stimulated bisensorily, attended to onl...
متن کاملTemporal dynamics of stimulus-specific gamma-band activity components during auditory short-term memory
Recently we have demonstrated that during auditory short-term memory maintenance, gamma-band activity (GBA) components can be identified which are specific to the retained stimulus. These activations peaked in the middle of the delay phase between sample and test stimuli, and their magnitude during the final part of this period correlated with performance. However, using a constant delay durati...
متن کاملStimulus-specific mechanisms of visual short-term memory.
The retention of spatial information in visual short-term memory was assessed by measuring spatial frequency discrimination thresholds with a two-interval forced-choice task varying the time interval between the two gratings to be compared. The memory of spatial frequency information was perfect across 10-sec interstimulus intervals. Presentation of a "memory masker" grating during the intersti...
متن کاملAuditory Short-Term Memory Behaves Like Visual Short-Term Memory
Are the information processing steps that support short-term sensory memory common to all the senses? Systematic, psychophysical comparison requires identical experimental paradigms and comparable stimuli, which can be challenging to obtain across modalities. Participants performed a recognition memory task with auditory and visual stimuli that were comparable in complexity and in their neural ...
