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.

Working memory (WM) may largely determine human cognitive capabilities and, consequently, daily functioning and performance in leading activity for diverse ages. Therefore, WM training seems to be relevant for both healthy individuals and patients with neurological or mental conditions of a broad age range. The kinds of WM training described in the literature are highly ...

Working memory (WM) is a system for the short-term storage and processing of a limited amount of information required for a current cognitive activity. WM largely determines a person's cognitive abilities throughout life and has been shown to decline with aging. This decline affects WM updating to a greater degree than maintenance and is more ...

The human gaze is a significant source of information during social interactions, and as such, it has been the focus of intensive study by researchers from various scientific disciplines for many decades. Two types of social gaze that develop sequentially in phylogeny and ontogeny are gaze following and mutual gaze. Previous behavioral research has identified ...

Long-duration spaceflight affects otolith-mediated ocular counter-roll (OCR) and brain function, but the relationship between these changes is unclear. This study examines whether OCR changes correlate with functional connectivity (FC) changes in the vestibular network in the same cosmonauts after a long-duration (6-month) spaceflight mission. Using a human vestibular atlas, we found that changes in FC ...

Reading is a core feature of human communication that develops throughout intensive academic training. Recently, a group of studies examined whether neuroanatomical variants that predate literacy acquisition may influence reading abilities at later stages of life, yielding mixed results. To complement and expand previous knowledge, we used multimodal magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) to investigate whether ...

The aim of this article is to review empirical studies, meta-analyses and systematicreviews on educational interventions for developing and improving reading compre-hension in adolescents, including both typically developing readers and those ex-periencing reading difficulties. We distinguish seven intervention types aimed at im-proving reading comprehension, each targeting different components as the basisfor intervention: decoding and reading ...

The analysis revealed nine distinct activation clusters, revealing a comprehensive neural network involved in uncertainty processing. Key findings demonstrated predominant activations in the anterior insula (up to 63.7% representation), inferior frontal gyrus (up to 40.7%), and inferior parietal lobule (up to 78.1%). We found a functional specialization between emotional-motivational processes (clusters 1–5) and cognitive processes ...

Our study investigates how language proficiency impacts cognitive processing in the brain. We focused on congenitally and early deaf adults, where individual differences in language access during development significantly influence language proficiency and cognitive function. This variability in language backgrounds and skills, allows us to explore the influence of early language experience on the large-scale ...

The neural mechanisms underlying the involvement of different working memory components remain unclear. We investigated oscillatory activity during verbal-spatial WM tasks involving either simple retention or complex manipulation. Using MEG, we examined differences in sensor-level activity across conditions in 29 participants. No significant differences were found between simple verbal and spatial storage. Complex tasks elicited ...

Obsessive–compulsive disorder (OCD) is a heterogeneous mental illness characterized by a variety of clinical manifestations and underlying neurobiological mechanisms. Modern research highlights the importance of identifying subtypes of OCD—separate categories that are characterized by specific phenotypic manifestations. This review provides a systematic integration of multi-level biomarker data (genetic, neuroimaging, neuropsychological) specifically aligned with the most ...

The digital environment surrounds us everywhere. However, little is known about the differences between digital and real environments impact on cognitive functions. Initially, the present study aims to juxtapose attention and working memory (WM) under digital and real conditions. In Experiment 1, attention and WM were compared under real (paper) and digital (computer) conditions using ...

Familial sinistrality (left-handedness) has been suggested as a proxy for functional language lateralization in the healthy adult brain. Previous studies show that individuals with familial sinistrality tend to have less lateralized language-related brain activation, while individuals without familial sinistrality show greater left-hemispheric lateralization for language. However, familial sinistrality trait has always been treated as a ...

Typing is a multi-level process involving executive and motor functions. Due to its hierarchical organization, it becomes possible to study the psychophysiological features of higher mental functions in the natural environment by analyzing automated motor activity. The purpose of this work is to identify psychophysiological correlates of executive functions through computer typing. This study presents ...

Context and relevance. To date, the study of brain correlates of working memory (WM) is associated with
a number of theoretical as well as methodological difficulties. Firstly, substantially variable tasks are used
to assess WM. Secondly, each neuroimaging method has its own characteristics and limitations. Objective.
The aim of this paper was to systematize the tasks used to ...

The ability to adopt different perspectives, or vantage points, is fundamental to human cognition, affecting reasoning, memory, and imagery. While the first-person perspective allows individuals to experience a scene through their own eyes, the thirdperson perspective involves an external viewpoint, which is thought to demand greater cognitive effort and different neural processing. Despite the frequent ...

We propose a novel biologically plausible computational model of working memory (WM) implemented by a spiking neuron network (SNN) interacting with a network of astrocytes. The SNN is modeled by synaptically coupled Izhikevich neurons with a non-specific architecture connection topology. Astrocytes generating calcium signals are connected by local gap junction diffusive couplings and interact with ...

Modeling the neuronal processes underlying short-term working memory remains the focus of many theoretical studies in neuroscience. In this paper, we propose a mathematical model of a spiking neural network (SNN) which simulates the way a fragment of information is maintained as a robust activity pattern for several seconds and the way it completely disappears ...

Mammalian brains operate in very special surroundings: to survive they have to react quickly and effectively to the pool of stimuli patterns previously recognized as danger. Many learning tasks often encountered by living organisms involve a specific set-up centered around a relatively small set of patterns presented in a particular environment. For example, at a ...

Cognitive flexibility—the ability to adaptively shift between different mental processes—is essential for human functioning. This meta-analysis examines age-related changes in neural correlates of cognitive flexibility using two common assessments: the Wisconsin Card Sorting Test (rule-discovery) and Task-Switching Paradigm (rule-retrieval). We synthesized findings from 85 articles comprising 118 experiments with 2246 participants across young, middle-age, and ...

The ability to infer a speaker's utterance within a particular context for the intended meaning is central to communication. Yet, little is known about the underlying neurocomputational mechanisms of pragmatic inference, let alone relevant differences among individuals. Here, using a reference game combined with model-based functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI), we showed that an individual-level ...
