Official Title: Causal Role of the Aperiodic Signal for Working Memory
Brief Summary:
Working memory (WM) is the ability to hold relevant information in mind in the absence of sensory input.The capacity for WM is a foundation for cognitive control and higher cognitive function more broadly.Previous research demonstrated that during the delay period of WM tasks, oscillatory electrical activity in the prefrontal cortex in the theta-frequency band (4-8 Hz) increased in amplitude.However, other groups found that the slope of the aperiodic signal in the brain was positively correlated with individual…
