Voicing the professional doctorate and the researching professional's identity
Although there is increasing interest in how learning to become a researching professional is understood by students undertaking a professional doctorate of education (EdD), the topic remains under-researched and...

Functional connexin35 increased in the myopic chicken retina.
Our previous research showed that increased phosphorylation of connexin (Cx)36 indicated extended  coupling of AII amacrine cells (ACs) in the rod-dominant mouse myopic retina. This research will determine whether...

The underlying structure of visuospatial working memory in children with mathematical learning disability.
This study examined visual, spatial-sequential, and spatial-simultaneous working memory (WM) performance in children with mathematical learning disability (MLD) and low mathematics achievement (LMA) compared with typically...

Automatic prioritization of self-referential stimuli in working memory
People preferentially attend to external stimuli that are related to themselves compared with others. Whether a similar self-reference bias applies to internal representations, such as those maintained in working memory (WM), is...

Interventions targeting working memory in 4-11 year olds within their everyday contexts
It has been suggested that diverse interventions applied within children's everyday contexts have the potential to improve working memory (WM) and produce transfer to real-world skills but little is known about the effectiveness...

Precise Topology of Adjacent Domain-General and Sensory-Biased Regions in the Human Brain.
Recent functional MRI studies identified sensory-biased regions across much of the association cortices and cerebellum. However, their anatomical relationship to multiple-demand (MD) regions, characterized as domain-general due...

A systematic review examining the characteristics of users of NHS patient medicines helpline services, and the types of enquiries they make
Background and objective: Patient medicines helpline services (PMHS) are available from some National Health Service Trusts in the United Kingdom to support patients following discharge. The aim of this systematic review was to...

White and gray matter damage in primary progressive MS
OBJECTIVE: The temporal relationship between white matter (WM) and gray matter (GM) damage in vivo in early primary progressive multiple sclerosis (PPMS) was investigated testing 2 hypotheses: (1) WM tract abnormalities predict...

Sensitivity of Diffusion MRI to White Matter Pathology
There are many ways to acquire and process diffusion MRI (dMRI) data for group studies, but it is unknown which maximizes the sensitivity to white matter (WM) pathology. Inspired by this question, we analyzed data acquired for...

Feature coding dataset for trained and untrained working memory tasks in randomized controlled trials of working memory training.
The data presented in this article are produced as part of the original research article entitled "Working memory training involves learning new skills" (Gathercole, Dunning, Holmes & Norris, in press). This article presents a...

Predictors of mathematics in primary school
We determined the relative importance of the so-called approximate number system (ANS), symbolic number comparison (SNC) and verbal and spatial short-term and working memory (WM) capacity for mathematics achievement in 1,254...

New perspectives on binding in visual working memory.
How does visual working memory (WM) store the binding between different features of a visual object (like colour, orientation, and location), and does memorizing these bindings require additional resources beyond memorizing...

Diffusion MRI approaches for investigating microstructural complexity in a rat model of traumatic brain injury.
Our study explores the potential of conventional and advanced diffusion MRI techniques including diffusion tensor imaging (DTI), and single-shell 3-tissue constrained spherical deconvolution (SS3T-CSD) to investigate complex...

Reassessing the Evidence for Capacity Limits in Neural Signals Related to Working Memory.
Paul M Bays
Feb 28, 2018
In 2004, two landmark studies described the discovery of brain imaging (functional magnetic resonance imaging and electroencephalography) signals that increase with the number of items held in visual working memory (WM). These...

White-Matter Pathways for Statistical Learning of Temporal Structures.
Extracting the statistics of event streams in natural environments is critical for interpreting current events and predicting future ones. The brain is known to rapidly find structure and meaning in unfamiliar streams of sensory...
