Objectives: The purpose of this research was to explore the possible differences in the working memory of monolingual (Persian) and bilingual  (Persian-Baluchi) children. We wanted to examine if there is a statistically significant relationship between working memory and bilingualism. Methods: Four working memory (WM) tests, assessing three WM components, were administered to 140 second...

Working memory (WM) is a part of human memory, the ability to maintain and manipulate information. WM performance is impaired in some neurological and psychiatric disorders such as schizophrenia and ADHD. Neurofeedback training is a self-regulation method which can be used to improve WM performance by changing related EEG parameters. In this paper we used neurofeedback training to improve WM pe...

background : the aim of the present study was to assess the auditory working memory span of children with (central) auditory processing disorders (c) apd aged 8 to 10 years and to compare the results with normal ones. methods: twenty five children with (central) auditory processing disorders (8-10 years) and 75 normal children (8-10 years) from both genders participated in this comparative stud...

Objective: The present study aimed to compare the adolescents with internalizing problems and non-clinical adolescents with respect to their episodic future thinking (EFT) and working memory (WM). Furthermore, this study examined the role of WM in the prediction of EFT. Methods: This cross-sectional study encompassed a population of female students studying in third grade in Azarshahr Girl&rsq...

This study examined verbal declarative memory functioning in SLI and its relationship to working memory. Encoding, recall, and recognition of verbal information was examined in children with SLI who had below average working memory (SLILow WM), children with SLI who had average working memory (SLIAvg. WM) and, a group of non-language impaired children with average working memory (TDAvg. WM). Th...

Objectives: The aim of this research is designing a computerized program, in game format, for working memory training in mild intellectual disabled children. Methods: 24 students participated as test and control groups. The auditory and visual-spatial WM were assessed by primary test, which included computerized Wechsler numerical forward and backward sub- tests, and secondary tests, which c...

objective: in this study, a new training method of working memory (wm) was used in the form of structured games, and the effect of training was evaluated with a controlled design. the training method of wm in the form of structured games includes 20 sets of structured games that can improve wm and performance of executive functions. method: sixty children with attention deficit hyperactivity di...

The Comprehensive Assessment Battery for Children - Working Memory (CABC-WM) is a computer-based battery designed to assess different components of working memory in young school-age children. Working memory deficits have been identified in children with language-based learning disabilities, including dyslexia1,2 and language impairment3,4, but it is not clear whether these children exhibit def...
