In his sample, it predicted success even when you accounted for the effects of practice; pianists with better working memory were better at sight reading and increased practice did not alter the effect.
Logical Memory (LM) delayed and Ray Auditory Verbal Learning Test (RAVLT) delayed, both tests assessing delayed verbal memory, were better at discriminating between MCI subjects who progressed (MCIp) and those who did not (MCInp).
Actually, Mary McCarthy's memory is better served if we transfer some of our attention from the woman to the work.
You also need a 3D-capable graphics card with at least 64 megabytes of video memory and DirectX 9; more memory is better, as Google outlines in its system requirements page for Google Earth.
His extraordinary memory was better than any electronic search engine: every meal was remembered; every glass savoured in recollection; and if you needed the lyrics of a pop song, the line-up of a Manchester United match, the best author of contemporary crime fiction or the outcome of a Napoleonic battle, he was your man.
Ms. Doran said she learned, when she tried to stop taking Prempro last summer, how much she needed it -- not just for night sweats, her initial reason, but because her memory is better, her decision-making improved and her mind is clearer when she takes the drug.
It is, obviously, impossible to control one's legacy after one expires; and while there will be many artists and writers who envy Milne's immortality, (for surely commanding any memory is better than none at all), to have a life summarised by people lobbing sticks over a bridge does seem something of a travesty.
We found that recognition performance for episodic memory was better during verum than during sham tDCS.
Pictures recall memory was better in the athlete group (9.25 ± 1.61) compared with the control ones (8 ± 1.15, p = 0.04).
Recognition memory was better for the semantic encoding condition ("related?"), but there was no modulation of the number of semantic links on memory performance for either encoding condition.
As previous research has shown that memory is better after temporally distributed than after contiguous (massed) repetitions, it seems plausible that also EC effects are moderated by distributed practice manipulations.
