Is working memory domain-general or domain-specific?
Given the fundamental role of working memory (WM) in all domains of cognition, a central
question has been whether WM is domain-general. However, the term 'domain-general'has …

Beta: bursts of cognition
Beta oscillations are linked to the control of goal-directed processing of sensory information
and the timing of motor output. Recent evidence demonstrates they are not sustained but …

The prefrontal cortex: from monkey to man
R Levy - Brain, 2024 - academic.oup.com
The prefrontal cortex is so important to human beings that, if deprived of it, our behaviour is
reduced to action-reactions and automatisms, with no ability to make deliberate decisions …
