Lucie Attout’s Talk on Serial Order in Working Memory: Function and nature of this coding

.\r\nSerial order in working memory: Function and nature of this coding\r\nLucie Attout, Department of Psychology and Educational sciences, University of Geneva.\r\nVerbal WM defines our ability to temporarily maintain verbal information in an activated and conscious state. This ability allows us not only to maintain the stimuli presented, but importantly, also the order in which the stimuli occur. First, using longitudinal, cross-sectional and neuroimaging designs in typical and neurodevelopmental atypical populations, we have demonstrated a specific association between serial order WM abilities and different learning abilities such as sentence processing, new vocabulary learning, mental arithmetic, reading and writing abilities. Second, I will address a fundamental question about the nature of serial order coding in WM. Many current models of WM agree on the existence of positional markers for binding items and their serial position in a WM task. However, the models diverge when it comes to defining the nature of serial order coding. These models suggest the possibility of the existence of domain-general ordinal positional codes, shared with other domains such as numerical or alphabetical, and based on space and\/or time representations. Recent behavioral and fMRI studies exploring this question specify the nature of the serial order code used. Finally, recent work questions the specificity of verbal WM with respect to the language processing. The aim of this talk is to try to give an idea of what order WM processing is, what it is used for and how it works.","offers":{"@type":"Offer","url":"https:\/\/unige.zoom.us\/j\/61516493612?pwd=l72K5e1k6t8TEKg9vFT6cztgb8bWx1.1","price":"","priceCurrency":"","validFrom":"","validThrough":"","availability":"https:\/\/schema.org\/InStock"},"performer":{"@type":"Person","name":"Lucie Attout"},"eventAttendanceMode":"https:\/\/schema.org\/MixedEventAttendanceMode","eventStatus":"https:\/\/schema.org\/EventScheduled"}]
