Figure 1

Maintenance of an item in WM memory as a function of its position within a sequence. The results are derived from computational simulations (100 blocks of 100 trials) of a delayed match-to-sample task (same stimulation protocol as in [3] and test item assimilated to a delayed match-to-sample task) with 9 selective neural assemblies sequentially stimulated. Maintenance in WM is estimated by assuming that an item is held in memory when its associated selective pool shows a mean persistent activity ν ≥ 30 Hz during a period of 500 ms 2 s after the end of the last stimulation. The network parameters can be found in [2] and τF=750 ms in this example.
