Older people experience less anxiety. We examined how memory of negative emotional images varied with age and may reflect age-related differences in Fifty-one adults, 22-80 years, underwent imaging a task where neutral were displayed pseudo-randomly. They queried post-scan about the inter-mixed an equal number never displayed. Sensitivity (d’) reporting bias (Z-score false alarm rate; Z[FAR]) quantified signal detection theory. Age was negatively correlated both Spielberg State Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI) state score d’ (negative – neutral) positively Z[FAR] neutral). However, STAI or not significantly correlated. In whole-brain regression, higher activity right middle/superior temporal gyri/temporal parietal junction (MTG/STG/TPJ) for “negative correct incorrect” “neutral trials. Further, MTG/STG/TPJ (β) also age. Mediation analyses supported complete mediation model anxiety β. Together, findings demonstrated changes reduction is reflected diminished temporoparietal cortical activities during encoding memory.

Abstract Capacity-limited visual working memory (VWM) requires that individuals have sufficient space and the ability to filter distractors. Negative emotional states are known impact VWM storage, yet their influence on distractor filtering within remains underexplored. We conducted direct neural measurement of participants (n = 56) who a lateralized change detection task with distractors, while manipulating state by presenting neutral or negative images before each trial. found detrimental effect distractors accuracy under both states. Using event-related potential (ERP) component, contralateral delay activity (CDA; sensitive load), observe load in condition, we state, showed significantly higher late CDA amplitudes when remembering 4 targets compared 2 but no significant difference In amplitude differences were evident targets, was targets. These results suggest maximum number items could store lower than Importantly, out not indicating impair VWM.

External distractions often occur when information must be retained in visual working memory (VWM)-a crucial element cognitive processing and everyday activities. However, the distraction effects can differ if they during encoding rather than delay stages. Previous research on these used simple stimuli (e.g., color orientation) considering caused by real-world VWM. In present study, participants performed a facial VWM task under different conditions across stages to elucidate mechanisms of resistance context complex stimuli. performance was significantly impaired delay-stage but not encoding-stage distractors (Experiment 1). addition, effect arose primarily due absence distractor process at stage presence 2). Finally, impairment delay-distraction condition abrupt appearance 3). Taken together, findings indicate that previously established for resisting using extended more stimuli, such as faces.

Classic models propose that forming lasting visual memories involves coordinated interactions between visually selective neocortical structures and the hippocampus during memory consolidation. However, precise role of in consolidation remains elusive, given their potential contributions spanning from initial perceptual encoding to subsequent reactivation. We capitalized on a unique opportunity, involving direct recording posterior parahippocampus its resection neurological patient, investigate impact scene-selective lesions First, with intracranial EEG, we confirmed functional relevance patient's resected tissues representing specific category, this case, scene images. Subsequently, identified disruption for scenes relative faces objects participant's postoperative visit. This finding prompted comprehensive analysis across different categories participant, as well an examination similar functions other patients intact parahippocampi cohort online participants. Through these within- between-participant comparisons, greater time-dependent reduction images following parahippocampus. Importantly, changes retention could not be attributed general lesions. Our findings, therefore, suggest reactivating areas is essential converting transient experiences into long-term memories.

Classic models consider working memory (WM) and long-term as distinct mental faculties that are supported by different neural mechanisms. Yet, there significant parallels in the computation both types of require. For instance, representation precise item-specific requires separation overlapping representations similar information. This has been referred to pattern separation, which can be mediated entorhinal-DG/CA3 pathway medial temporal lobe (MTL) service episodic memory. However, although recent evidence suggested MTL is involved WM, extent supports WM remained elusive. Here, we combine an established orientation task with high-resolution fMRI test hypothesis retains visual a simple surface feature. Participants were retrospectively cued retain one two studied gratings during brief delay period then tried reproduce precisely possible. By modeling delay-period activity reconstruct retained content, found anterior-lateral entorhinal cortex (aLEC) hippocampal DG/CA3 subfield contain information associated subsequent recall fidelity.

Active maintenance of information in working memory (WM) is an essential but effortful cognitive process. Yet, the nature WM remains poorly understood. Here, we constructed a model to evaluate how perceived effort directly compared that physical exertion. In Experiment 1, participants freely chose either remember certain number colors visual task or hold hand dynamometer required percentage maximal voluntary contraction (%MVC) obtain fixed credit upon successful completion.
