A neural clock underlying the temporal dynamics of an auditory memory
… be imitated and store this representation as a memory. Next, they must recall this sensory memory, evaluating their imitation attempts until a satisfactory match is achieved. In this thesis I study the neural control of vocal imitation in the songbird Taengiopia guttata, focusing on the first …

A study of the relationship between auditory memory span and sentence repetition.
… The purpose of this study is to investigate auditory memory as it relates to sentence repetition. Three questions were investigated: Is the ability to repeat a grammatically complex sentence the result of mastery of the rules of the grammatical relations for that particular sentence form? Is …

THE EFFECTS OF WORD LENGTH, WORD FREQUENCY AND WORD REPETITION IN AUDITORY MEMORY (LEXICON, VERBAL ABILITY, PSYCHOLINGUISTICS)
<p>Four auditory lexical decision experiments were run to assess the effects of word frequency, word length, and word repetition. Experiment I examined the effects of word length, word frequency, and stimulus repetition on RT. The results demonstrated a significant main effect for length and …

Auditory Recall In Normal Children And Children With A Diagnosis Of Central Auditory Processing Disorder
… the differences in level of performance on auditory memory tasks between individuals with and without a diagnosis of Central Auditory Processing Disorder (CAPD). The study was also designed to examine the differences in performance among different auditory memory tasks. A total of ten …

Age Related Decline in Memory: Examining the Mediation Effect of Processing, Executive Functioning and Intelligence in Normal Adults
… have examined the mechanisms that underlie memory change among younger aging individuals. As a result, it is unclear whether relevant mediating variables have been excluded from early research on age-related memory decline, or to what extent rehabilitative strategies are applicable as early …

Auditory Training and its Effect on the Phonemic Awareness Development of Individuals with Dyslexia Who Have a Deficit in Phonological and Phonemic Awareness
… of this case study was to determine if an auditory, music-related, intervention connected to phonemic awareness development impacted the phonological and phonemic awareness abilities of an individual with dyslexia who had a deficit in phonemic awareness. Phonemic awareness requires the …

The Development of a Reading Readiness Program Designed to be Implemented into a Kindergarten Curriculum
… listening skills, visual discrimination, visual memory, auditory discrimination, auditory memory and perceptual motor development. Over all goals for the project were also developed. Each of the seven areas discussed included; objectives, activities and assessment inventories. Recommendations for …

Linking Developmental Working Memory and Early Academic Skills
… potential. Current research has examined working memory skills in relationship to early learning. The function of working memory is best examined in the context of childhood developmental theory using the framework of Baddeley and Hitch's model. Understanding developmental working memory …

Identification of Traits Transmitted Associated With Stuttering
… for all groups indicating that phonological and auditory memory may not be closely related to stuttering. Further research is warranted to identify other traits that may be transmitted with stuttering based on the results of the current exploratory study.

Effect of high-beta versus gamma binaural beat exposure on immediate and delayed recall
… and increased attention during working memory tasks, while stimulation in the Beta frequency band has been associated with increased memory performance. However, there is a lack of direct comparison between the effects of exposure to High-Beta versus Gamma binaural beats on immediate and …

A MEG investigation of lexical access in aphasia
… that occurs secondary to brain damage, and auditory comprehension deficits are a defining component of aphasia. At the single-word level, these deficits are thought to arise from impaired phonological processing, semantic representations, or both. The present study examined spreading lexical …

An Analysis and Comparison of WMS-III and WMS-IV Verbal Paired Associates: Practical Implications for Neuropsychologists
… from current and prior versions of the Wechsler Memory Scale (WMS). It was predicted that VPA from the WMS-III (VPA3) would be similar in agreement to the WMS-IV (VPA4) and that VPA4 would show a stronger relationship than VPA3 with intellectual abilities, sustained attention, and executive …
