It has recently been suggested that speakers vary in the amount of speech planning and that the scope of planning is influenced by taskand speaker specific constraints. To test this, an experiment is presented examining the effects of linguistic structure and working memory on speech planning, as evidenced in pause duration and F0 peaks. Twenty speakers of German performed two tasks. In the fir...

Introduction: Recent reports have shown that rare fluctuations in cardiac cycles are ‘forgotten’ quickly in healthy individuals and it is possible to quantify the “memory length” of a physiological time-series using an inverse statistical approach. Methods: In the present study, we assessed the effect of aging on memory length in cardiac rhythm. Results: There was a long...

A new study shows that different processes are responsible for maintaining relevant and suppressing irrelevant information. By promoting the suppression of irrelevant information, memories may be enhanced. Everyday we are bombarded with information from the media, colleagues, spouses and friends. Some of this information is relevant and important, but other information is irrelevant and should ...
