TL;DR: The present experiments examine the flexibility of object and location WM representations by measuring reaction times on a visual discrimination task during the delay period of a WM recognition task for object identities, locations, or both and suggest that when this relationship is necessary for task performance, WM represents an object and its identity in an integrated manner, however, ifThis relationship is not task relevant, the object and locations information are represented in WM separately.

TL;DR: It is found that the association between white matter microstructural integrity and cognitive functioning with aging is mediated by time-varying alpha and gamma phase-locking value.

TL;DR: This work quantifies the model by inferring impulse response functions from physiological data, and predicts the output of the different color pathways to temporally modulated achromatic signals which produce the sensation of color.

TL;DR: The findings, which extend recent evidence on freely chosen motor movements, suggest that dorsal anterior cingulate and lateral prefrontal cortices play key roles in both overt and covert acts of volition, and may constitute core components of a brain network underlying the will to attend.

TL;DR: It is suggested that abstract relational information is maintained in WM differently from concrete, sensory representations and that during maintenance of abstract information, posterior sensory regions become task irrelevant and are thus suppressed.
