Abstract

I propose working memory be considered, not as a process for static maintenance in a particular set of brain regions, but rather as a dynamic process unfolding to serve future needs. Brain regions such as the hippocampus, or sensory and motor regions, may be necessarily recruited during this process, depending on task demands. Information stored in working memory is thus a distributed representation reflected in the structural and functional state of multiple brain areas and the trajectory of that state over time. Recent research is discussed in support of this view.

“工作记忆是一个分布式的动态过程。”

我建议不要把工作记忆看作是一组特定大脑区域的静态维护过程，而应该把它看作是一个为满足未来需求而展开的动态过程。根据任务要求，海马体或感觉和运动区域等大脑区域可能在这一过程中被必要地调动起来。因此，储存在工作记忆中的信息是一种分布式表征，反映在多个大脑区域的结构和功能状态以及该状态随时间的轨迹上。最近的研究讨论了支持这一观点。

期刊介绍： Cognitive Neuroscience publishes high quality discussion papers and empirical papers on any topic in the field of cognitive neuroscience including perception, attention, memory, language, action, social cognition, and executive function. The journal covers findings based on a variety of techniques such as fMRI, ERPs, MEG, TMS, and focal lesion studies. Contributions that employ or discuss multiple techniques to shed light on the spatial-temporal brain mechanisms underlying a cognitive process are encouraged.
