The Distributed Nature of Working Memory. (2017, background): “Later, electrophysiological [26] and functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) studies (reviewed in [27]) revealed persistent neural activity in various brain regions during memory delays, including sensory cortices [28].”
Eight Problems for the Mirror Neuron Theory of Action Understanding in Monkeys and Humans (2009, background): “…for grasping, but they do not appear to have any role in objects’ identification’’ (p. 334).1 According to the most detailed early study (Gallese et al., 1996), mirror neurons constituted 17% of sampled cells in the portion of F5 that was examined, and exhibit the following properties.”
Neuronal circuits underlying persistent representations despite time varying activity. (2012, background): “Persistent representations for time periods beyond the single-neuron time constant, though typically most strongly associated with working memory networks, are also observed in sensory cortical areas following removal of stimuli [36, 37] and even in primary visual cortex, V1 [38, 39].”
Delay-period Activity in the Prefrontal Cortex: One Function Is Sensory Gating (2005, background): “From this perspective, the PFC is not the neural substrate for working memory storage buffers, because the STR of information is supported in a domain-specific manner in areas responsible for perception, knowledge representation, language, and motor control (e.g., Jonides, Lacey, & Nee, 2005; Paste”
Decision making in recurrent neuronal circuits. (2008, background): “Perceptual discrimination (Pasternak and Greenlee, 2005) and action selection (Tanji and Hoshi, 2008) tasks often also depend working memory, in order to retain information useful for a future decision or to remember a choice made previously.”
Working memory as an emergent property of the mind and brain. (2006, positive): “…first principle of the emergent processes framework have also been derived from reviews of the monkey neurophysiological and human psychophysical literature (Pasternak & Greenlee, 2005;Theeuwes et al., 2005), and from the human neuroimaging literature (Jonides, Lacey, & Nee, 2005;Slotnick, 2005).”
Gamma and beta bursts underlie working memory (2016, positive): “We sought to test model predictions in local field potential (LFP) and spike data from the PFC of monkeys performing a multi-item memory task.”
The mind and brain of short-term memory. (2008, background): “(c) Focused items are www.annualreviews.org • The Mind and Brain of Short-Term Memory 215 A nn u.”
Distractor anticipation during working memory is associated with theta and beta oscillations across spatial scales (2024, unknown): “In addition, our cross-temporal generalization results showed the representation of memory items evolved over time (Figure 9), aligning with the “dynamic coding” framework (Zaksas and Pasternak, 2006; Stokes et al., 2013; Stokes, 2015), in which diﬀerent mixtures of neurons encode throughout memory ”
Effective connectivity of working memory performance: a DCM study of MEG data (2024, result): “…connections in low accuracy trials suggest that the role of visual cortex during the delay period is not solely that of a passive recipient of feedback signals, consistent with the sensory recruitment hypothesis of WM (Pasternak and Greenlee, 2005; D’Esposito, 2007; Scimeca et al., 2018).”
