Functional MRI study of working memory development in school-aged children
P. 139-139.
Faber A., Arsalidou M.
Working memory is involved in many cognitive processes, and it is essential in problem solving, manipulating temporary information and decision making. Critically little is known about the brain correlates of working memory capacity in children. In this study we examined brain correlates of working memory with functional neuroimaging in school-aged children.

Academic achievement of school aged children is highly related to core cognitive abilities such as executive function and working memory (Swanson & Alloway, 2012). Although the functional brain correlates of working memory (Owen et al., 2005) and mental-attention (Arsalidou et al., 2013) have been examined previously in adults, little is known about its neural correlates ...

Working memory, a fundamental cognitive function that is highly dependent on the integrity of the prefrontal cortex, is known to show age-related declines across the typical healthy adult lifespan. Moreover, we know from work in neurophysiology that the prefrontal cortex is disproportionately susceptibly to the pathological effects of aging. The n-back task is arguably the ...

The majority of neuroimaging studies focus on brain activity during performance of cognitive tasks; however, some studies focus on brain areas that activate in the absence of a task. Despite the surge of research comparing these contrasted areas of brain function, their interrelation is not well understood. We systematically manipulated cognitive load in a working ...

The theory of constructive operators was used as a framework to design two versions of a paradigm (color matching task, CMT) in which items are parametrically ordered in difficulty, and differ only contextually. Items in CMT-Balloon are facilitating, whereas items in CMT-Clown contain misleading cues. Participants of ages 7–14 years and adults (N = 149) were studied. ...

This article reviews the research in visual working memory (VWM) over the past 20 years. We describe research methodologies in the field and focus on commonly used paradigms such as change detection and continuous report (including the use of mixed models for analysis) that aim to measure the capacity and precision of VWM. We also ...

Attention and consciousness are related. We solve problems by directing attention to them and shift our attention to unrelated thoughts when our mind wonders. These circumstances can represent different conscious states. Research shows that adults activate two distinct brain networks when directing attention to a task (i.e., fronto-parietal or executive network) and when mind wondering ...

The n‐back task is likely the most popular measure of working memory for functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) studies. Despite accumulating neuroimaging studies with the n‐back task and children, its neural representation is still unclear. fMRI studies that used the n‐back were compiled, and data from children up to 15 years (n = 260) were analyzed using activation likelihood estimation. ...

Investigations of the neural correlates of face recognition have typically used old/new paradigms where subjects learn to recognize new faces or identify famous faces. Familiar faces, however, include one's own face, partner's and parents' faces. Using event-related fMRI, we examined the neural correlates of these personally familiar faces. Ten participants were presented with photographs of ...

In the present work, we describe an approach to reconstruction of dynamic connectomes. The experimental part of the study consisted in analysis of the resting state of brain with sample of 30 healthy human subjects. Proposed method allows reconstruction of dynamic connectomes what makes it applicable for development of classifiers-decoders of mental states. ...

Attentional control of referential information is an important contributor to the structure of discourse (Sanford, 2001; Sanford & Garrod, 1981). We investigated how attention and memory interplay during visually situated sentence production. We manipulated speakers’ attention to the agent or the patient of a described event by means of a referential or a dot visual ...

Глаголы физического действия (англ. motor verbs) – это семантический класс глаголов, обозначающих действие, выполняемое какой-либо частью тела (например, рвать, щекотать). Инструментальные глаголы (англ. instrumental verbs) обозначают действие, для выполнения которого необходимо использование инструмента, не являющегося частью тела (например, пилить, вязать); являются подклассом глаголов физического действия. Представляет интерес то, связана ли обработка глаголов этих семантических классов ...

Previous studies distinguish between right hemisphere-dominant processing of prosodic/tonal information and left-hemispheric modulation of grammatical information as well as lexical tones. Swedish word accents offer a prime testing ground to better understand this division. Although similar to lexical tones, word accents are determined by words' morphosyntactic structure, which enables listeners to use the tone at ...

fMRI language mapping studies report right-hemispheric contribution to language in healthy individuals. However, it remains unclear whether these right-hemispheric patterns of activity are critical for language, which is highly relevant for clinical preoperative language mapping. The available findings are controversial. In this study, we first measured individual patterns of language lateralization with an fMRI language localizer ...

In modern linguistics and psycholinguistics speech disfluencies in real fluent speech are a well-known phenomenon. But it’s not still clear which components of brain systems are involved into its comprehension in a listener’s brain. In this paper we provide a pilot neuroimaging study of the possible neural correlates of speech disfluencies perception, using a combination ...

The aim of the current study was to provide an empirical evidence of an emotional state’s influence on the updating of affective information in working memory. The emotional congruence effect was expected: participants in a happy emotional state would be more successful in updating positive information compared to negative and neutral information. It was also ...

We present an electrophysiological dataset recorded from nine subjects during a verbal working memory task. Subjects were epilepsy patients undergoing intracranial monitoring for the localization of epileptic seizures. Subjects performed a modified Sternberg task in which the encoding of memory items, maintenance, and recall were temporally separated. The dataset includes simultaneously recorded scalp EEG with ...

An experiment in the dual-task paradigm was carried out to explore the nature of domain-specific and domain-general resource distribution in working memory. The subjects (N = 32) performed symmetry span and letter reading span tasks under visuospatial (tapping) and verbal (articulatory suppression) cognitive load. The effects of task type and cognitive load modality were analyzed. ...

Research shows that object-location binding errors can occur in VWM indicating a failure to store bound representations rather than mere forgetting (Bays et al., 2009; Pertzov et. al. 2012). Here we investigated how categorical similarity between real-world objects influences the probability of object-location binding errors. Our observers memorized three objects (image set: Konkle et. al. ...
