A new model of verbal short-term memory

S Morra - Journal of Experimental Child Psychology, 2000 - Elsevier
Two experiments tested a neo-Piagetian model of verbal short-term memory and compared
it with the articulatory loop model. Experiment 1 (n= 113, age range 9–11) tested word span …

Working memory as a mental workspace: Why activated long-term memory is not enough

RH Logie, S Della Sala - Behavioral and Brain Sciences, 2003 - cambridge.org
Working-memory retention as activated long-term memory fails to capture orchestrated
processing and storage, the hallmark of the concept of working memory. The event-related …

More than working memory rides on long-term memory

JM Fuster - Behavioral and Brain Sciences, 2003 - cambridge.org
Single-unit data from the cortex of monkeys performing working-memory tasks support the
main point of the target article. Those data, however, also indicate that the activation of long …

Temporal lobe speech perception systems are part of the verbal working memory circuit: Evidence from two recent fMRI studies

G Hickok, B Buchsbaum - Behavioral and Brain Sciences, 2003 - cambridge.org
In the verbal domain, there is only very weak evidence favoring the view that working
memory is an active state of long-term memory. We strengthen existing evidence by …

Models versus descriptions: Real differences and language differences

JGW Raaijmakers, RM Shiffrin - Behavioral and Brain Sciences, 2003 - cambridge.org
We argue that an approach that treats short-term memory as activated long-term memory is
not inherently in conflict with information recycling in a limited-capacity or working-memory …

“Magical number 5” in a chimpanzee

N Kawai, T Matsuzawa - Behavioral and Brain Sciences, 2001 - cambridge.org
One of our recent studies has revealed that a numerically trained chimpanzee can memorize
a correct sequence of five numbers shown on a monitor. Comparative investigations with …

New data: Old pitfalls

A Baddeley - Behavioral and Brain Sciences, 2003 - cambridge.org
Ruchkin et al.'s theoretical conclusions reflect two venerable fallacies. They confound an
experimental paradigm with a theoretical concept, and they assume that features of the …

Magazzini di memoria? Pronti per l'oblio!

S Morra - Giornale italiano di psicologia, 1998 - rivisteweb.it
Lo studio della memoria a breve termine ha una storia secolare ma solo con la nascita della
psicologia cognitivista ha assunto importanza teorica centrale, in virtù dell'ipotesi che uno o …

Activation of long-term memory by alpha oscillations in a working-memory task?

W Klimesch, B Schack - Behavioral and Brain Sciences, 2003 - cambridge.org
We focus on the functional specificity of theta and alpha oscillations and show that theta is
related to working memory, whereas alpha is related to semantic long-term memory. Recent …
