Impulse responses reveal unimodal and bimodal access to visual and auditory working memory

Abstract: It is unclear to what extent sensory processing areas are involved in the maintenance of sensory information in working memory (WM). Previous studies have thus far relied on finding neural activity in the corresponding sensory cortices, neglecting potential activitysilent mechanisms such as connectivity-dependent encoding. It has recently been found that visual stimulation during visual WM maintenance reveals WM-dependent changes through a bottom-up neural response. Here, we test whether this impulse response … Show more

“…To increase sensitivity and to ease visualisation, we reduced these tuning-profiles from Fig. 2 B, to a single decodability value per time point, by convolving the tuning profiles with a cosine function ( van Ede, Chekroud, Stokes, and Nobre, 2018 ; Wolff et al., 2019 ; as in Wolff et al., 2017 ). Decoding time-courses are depicted in Fig.…”

“…However, the figures show that decoding accuracy quickly deteriorated and even approached the chance level towards the end of the delay (<1 s). In another study employing the same approach the accuracy of the classification declined below chance level shortly before the end of the delay, i.e., 700 ms after the delay onset (Wolff et al, 2019). The fact that it was possible to decode only the attended item, led to a conclusion that neural activity may represent not the entire content but only information in the focus of attention (Lewis-Peacock et al, 2011; Stokes, 2015; Wolff et al, 2015, 2017).…”

“…While absent decoding should not be taken as direct evidence for activity-silent storage [29], the opposite is true: being able to decode is evidence for active storage. Evidence for EEG code reactivations [7,24,[30][31][32][33] remain fundamental in showing the remarkable effects of visual pinging, in particular for exploring how it interacts with actively held [20,24], not activity-silent, memories.…”
