Contrary to popular belief that memory resembles a recording device which stores all information about our personal life events or learned information, in psychology, memory is understood as a process. This pro
The theta-gamma model of working memory has motivated the development of stimulation-based interventions that directly targeted visual working memory capacity, as opposed to overall visual working memory performance. Specifically, the model predicts that if entrainment slows down the relevant endogenous the...
Human memory consists of Sensory Memory (SM), Short-Term Memory (STM), and Long-Term Memory. SM enables a large capacity but decays rapidly. STM has limited capacity but lasts longer. Previously, it was shown that major bottlenecks for motion processing exist prior to STM (Ogmen et al, ...
To understand how the health of older adults today compares to that of previous generations, we estimated intrinsic capacity and subdomains of cognitive, locomotor, sensory, psychological and vitality capacities in participants of the English Longitudinal Study of Ageing and the China Health and Retirem...
Working memory capacity has both an activation mechanism (organising the holding in mind of the task goal and relevant sensory input within short term memory) and an inhibitory mechanism (inhibiting all competing information and processing) (Roberts & Pennington, 1996). The debate over the extent ...
An intrinsic capacity index (ICI) was created using five variables measured in HUNT4 and HUNT4 70 + that fit the five domains of intrinsic capacity as defined by WHO [7]: Locomotion, cognition, vitality, psychology and sensory capacity. Sensory capacity was measured for both auditory and...
ofmental capacity(agency) and a phenomenal internal state (patiency). The dimension of agency includes the attributes of intelligence, self-control, morality, memory, emotion recognition, planning, communication, and thought. The dimension of patiency includes the attributes of experience, sensation, ...
The memory system that maintains information for extended periods of time is called ___. (a) sensory memory (b) long-term memory (c) short-term memory (d) associative memory. Although sensory memory is involved every time we store information, we a...

it highlights the capacity and limitation of extensive experience for improving different types of attentional performance. These results contribute to long-standing theoretical debates regarding the nature of “cognitive bottlenecks” that limit the ability to deal with the influx of sensory information en...
