Cognitively Demanding Tasks

This volume aims to summarize the state of the art in the working memory (WM) training literature. The idea for the book was conceived in 2011 and at the time the notion that general cognitive abilities could be improved through training was exciting yet controversial. The early evidence, although imperfect, was tantalizing: Several studies had seemingly illustrated that people’s performance on untrained measures of intellectual abilities could be improved after just a few hours of training on cognitively demanding tasks (...

Molecular Skeleton

Various authors have emphasized the spatial information resident in an electron micrograph taken with adequately coherent radiation. In view of the completion of at least one such instrument, this opportunity is taken to summarize the state of the art of processing such micrographs. We use the usual symbols for the aberration coefficients, and supplement these with £ and 6 for the transverse coherence length and the fractional energy spread respectively. He also assume a weak, biologically interesting sample, with principal interest lying in the molecular skeleton remaining after obvious hydrogen loss and other radiation damage has occurred.

And Function

The search for best practices in hearing aid fittings and aural rehabilitation has generally used the audiogram and function stemming from peripheral sensitivity. In recent years, however, we have learned that individuals respond differently to various hearing aid and aural rehabilitation techniques based on cognitive abilities. In this paper, we review basic concepts of working memory and the literature driving our knowledge in newer concepts of hearing aid fitting and aural rehabilitation.
