  • The purpose of this study was to identify the characteristics of the phonological discrimination ability and phonological working memory of 10 typically developing children aged 4, and 10 other children with Specific Language Impairments whose language age is similar. In orders to compare their phonological discrimination ability among phonological awareness, discrimination tasks were conducted at the syllable and phoneme levels. Also, in order to compare their phonological working memory, the subjects repeated nonsense syllables. The research results may be summarized as follows: First, the children with Specific Language Impairments demonstrated a lower performance than the typically developing children in phonological discrimination ability at both syllable and phoneme levels, and the difference between the groups was statistically significant. Second, the children with Specific Language Impairments exhibited a lower phonological working memory performance in all syllables compared with normal children. Although there was no significant difference in 2 and 3 syllables, a significant difference appeared as the length of the syllables became longer from 4 to 6 syllables. It is deemed necessary to conduct research into qualitative and quantitative differences through an formal assessment of the phonological awareness and phonological working memory of children with Specific Language Impairments.

  • Working memory is the term used to refer to the mental workplace in which information can be temporarily stored and manipulated during complex everyday activities such as understanding language. The studies on language and working memory are based on Baddeley's phonological working memory and Daneman and Carpenter's functional working memory. This article reviews two working memory models and the studies on language and working memory based on each model. These are described in the implication of working memory in language development and specific language impairment-evaluation and treatment.

  • 본 연구에서는 읽기와 관련된 작업기억의 특징을 살펴보기 위해 초등학교 3, 4학년 읽기부진아들과 일반아동들을 비교하였으며, 성별 비교와 각 성분들 간의 상관분석도 실시하였다. 연구 결과 읽기부진아들은 일반아동들보다 작업기억의 모든 하위 검사에서 낮은 수행 수준을 나타내었다. 성별 비교에서 시공간 잡기장에서 성별차가 나타났으며, 그 중 미로이동 기억에서는 읽기능력과 성별 간의 상호작용도 있었다. 전체 집단에서 작업기억의 각 성분들 간의 모든 상관이 유의미하게 나타났으나, 읽기부진아와 일반아동을 분리해서 상관을 구했을 때는 하나의 상관을 제외하고 두 집단에 공통적으로 유의미한 상관이 나타나지 않았다. 중앙집행기의 영향을 제거했을 때 음운 작업기억과 시공간 작업기억 간의 상호관련성이 낮아짐을 확인할 수 있었다. 본 연구를 통해서 읽기부진아 지도에서는 수업자료를 간략하게 제시할 필요성이 있으며, 읽기부진 남학생에게는 가능한 한 시공간 정보를 활용할 필요가 있다는 시사점을 찾을 수 있었다.

  • Objectives : Mild Alzheimer's disease(AD) is uncertain to be related to visuospatial working memory subsystem dysfunction. We used the self ordered pointing test(SOPT) to find the characteristics of visuospatial working memory in mild AD. Methods : We compared the visuospatial working memory abilities of 20 patients with mild AD and 20 normal elderly controls(NC) using SOPT, of which stimuli consisted of two stimuli types(A : abstract, C : concrete) and two stimuli numbers(8 and 12). Therefore, working memory was tested using C8, C12, A8, and A12 stimuli conditions in SOPT. Mixed-model ANOVA was conducted with the AD and NC groups as between-subjects factor, with stimuli types and stimuli numbers as the within-subjects factors and with SOPT error rates as the dependent variable. Results : The AD group showed higher error rates in SOPT than the NC group. The NC group showed low error rates in concrete stimuli than in abstract stimuli and in small stimuli numbers than in large stimuli numbers. And the AD group showed no differences between stimuli types or stimuli numbers. Conclusion : AD patients showed a poor performance in visuospatial working memory using concrete stimuli. The result suggests that there is a non-transformation from visual input to phonological working memory in AD. Patients with AD showed a poor performance although in small stimuli number condition of SOPT. It suggests that in AD, visuospatial working memory is not working well although in low central executive loads.

  • Objective: In order to investigate the functional brain anatomy associated with verbal and visual working memory, functional magnetic resonance imaging was performed. Materials and Methods: In ten normal right handed subjects, functional MR images were obtained using a 1.5-T MR scanner and the EPI BOLD technique. An item recognition task was used for stimulation, and during the activation period of the verbal working memory task, consonant letters were used. During the activation period of the visual working memory task, symbols or diagrams were employed instead of letters. For the post-processing of images, the SPM program was used, with the threshold of significance set at p < .001. We assessed activated brain areas during the two stimulation tasks and compared the activated regions between the two tasks. Results: The prefrontal cortex and secondary visual cortex were activated bilaterally by both verbal and visual working memory tasks, and the patterns of activated signals were similar in both tasks. The superior parietal cortex was also activated by both tasks, with lateralization to the left in the verbal task, and bilaterally without lateralization in the visual task. The inferior frontal cortex, inferior parietal cortex and temporal gyrus were activated exclusively by the verbal working memory task, predominantly in the left hemisphere. Conclusion: The prefrontal cortex is activated by two stimulation tasks, and this is related to the function of the central executive. The language areas activated by the verbal working memory task may be a function of the phonological loop. Bilateral prefrontal and superior parietal cortices activated by the visual working memory task may be related to the visual maintenance of objects, representing visual working memory.

  • The purpose of this study was to investigate why advance organizers (AO) are effective in promoting comprehension and mental model formation in terms of cognitive load. Two experimental groups: a concept-map AO group and a key-word AO group and one control group were used. This study considered cognitive load in view of Baddeley's working memory model: central executive (CE), phonological loop (PL), and visuo-spatial sketch pad (VSSP). The present experiment directly examined cognitive load using dual task methodology. The results were as follows: central executive (CE) suppression task achievement for the concept map AO group was higher than the key word AO group and control group. Comprehension and mental model construction for the concept map AO group were higher than the other groups. These results indicated that the superiority of concept map AO owing to CE load decrement occurred with comprehension and mental model construction in learning. Thus, the available resources produced by CE load reduction may have been invested for comprehension and mental model construction of learning contents.

  • Lee와 Kang (2002)은 이중과제 수행동안 음운회로의 시연이 곱셈 수행을 유의하게 지연시키지만 뺄셈의 수행을 지연시키지는 못함을 보여주었다. 반면 심상을 유지하는 것은 뺄셈 수행을 지연시키지만 곱셈의 수행에는 영향을 미치지 않았다. 이 결과는 산술연산이 작업기억의 하부체계 특정적인 방식으로 관련있음을 보여준다. 본 연구의 목적은 기능자기공명영상기법을 이용하여 Lee와 Kang이 얻은 결과의 신경기반을 검토하는 것이었다. 이 목적을 위해 억제를 요구하는 이중과제 조건과 억제를 요구하지 않는 이중과제 조건에서의 뇌활성화 양상을 비교하였다. 두 조건이 모두 이중과제 조건이었음에도 불구하고 간섭조건이 비간섭조건에 비해 더 활성화되는 영역들이 관찰되었다. 더 중요한 사실은 음운억제조건에서 우측 하전회(inferior frontal gyrus), 좌측 각회(angular gyrus), 그리고 하정소엽(inferior parietal lobule) 등의 영역이 활성화 된 것에 비해, 시각억제조건에서 활성화된 영역은 우측 상측두회(superior temporal gyrus)와 전대상회 (anterior cingulate gyrus)였다 억제조건에서의 결과와 달리 음운 비억제 조건에서 활성화된 영역은 우내측 전두회 (medial frontal gyrus), 좌측 중전두회 (niddle frontal gyrus)와 양측의 내측전두회 (medial frontal gyrus)였으며, 시각 비억제 조건에서는 전대상회, 그리고 해마이랑(parahippocampal gyrus)의 영역이 활성화되었다. 이러한 결과는 처리 부호를 공유할 때 야기되는 간섭을 억제하는 것의 신경기반이 과제의 양상에 의존적임을 보여준다.

  • Objectives: This study aimed to identify the effectiveness of treatment programs for children with reading (RD) or mathematics disorders (MD). Structured treatment programs were developed to improve phonological awareness and number sense among children and adolescents with RD or MD, respectively, and the effectiveness of the learning disorder treatment programs were evaluated. Methods: We used standardized, objective diagnostic, and evaluation tools not only to recruit participants with RD, MD, or comorbid attention deficit and hyperactivity disorder, but also to assess the effectiveness of the treatments regarding both improved core neurocognitive deficits of RD or MD and academic achievement. Forty children with RD or MD received one-on-one treatments from therapists. Results: In the RD group, treatment effects were observed in all subtests. In the word and paragraph reading tests, the accuracy rates and fluency improved. The results of the phonological working memory test, word-sound correspondence test, and rapid automatic naming tests also improved. In the MD group, the accuracy rate and fluency on the arithmetic test improved. An increase in the accuracy rate in the size and distance comparison tests and a decrease in the error rate in the estimation test were also observed. However, there were no improvements in reaction time in these subtests. Conclusion: Learning disorder treatment programs that focus on improving phonological awareness or number sense in children with RD or MD improved achievement, phonological awareness, and number sense.
