Re: Title: When do spatial and visual working memory interact? (2010-11) --> position v. other visual n-back settings!

Notes, translated from German and then back into English:

---------------

- Obvious connection with TNB and higher.

- "Object memory tasks different neural substrates than spatial memory
tasks ... posterior dorsal frontal cortex [for Spatial Information
and] rear ventral frontal cortex is preferred in the maintenance of
non-spatial information involved" TNB and QNB are not only taxing the
DLPFC, where much of the research is, but also those areas. I think we
can close plastic changes. I know no other training protocol, N-back
or otherwise, which could make these claims. Simultaneous activation
of the two areas would also result in greater functional connectivity
(on top of that possibly with the DLPFC and ACC) and geez, I think we
all know what that means. P

-I find it interesting how differently interact with each other bloody
parts of the brain (ie part sees "red", sees the others' phallic
shape, "so that they produce exchange notes and" red phallus-shape.
"Anyway.)

-If you use a larger grid in their dual role as a brain-task workshop,
and a color palette. Would be interesting for Brain Workshop
parameter. Willing to code. Eventually.

-From results: "The location memory task had no significant effect on
the object memory task," If we all these tasks you stack up at once to
TNB or QNB, we only have training Gs, inspection time or the reaction
rate, rather than be all could be novel. Although I'm still trying to
wrap my head around the task, since it is not like TNB / QNB.

-Oook "disturb the color memory task from the location memory task,
but the shape-memory task and the memory retention task interfere with
the location memory task:" If we are training inhibition, QNB> TNB.
Seems like a breeze, but it is to have something different for reasons
that "more data" as TNB with shapes instead of color would have the
same effect.

That's all what I write before I could stir crazy now. Hope it is
useful.

... not bad. Expected worse.
