}Results in the PFC are consistent with the view that this region contributes more importantly to the control of information in working memory than to its STR, and in the SPL, they illustrate the importance of supplementing the fundamentally correlational data from neuroimaging with a disruptive method, which affords stronger inference about structure-function relations.

The aim of this review is to present the main findings that have emerged from experiments which used the TMS technique for memory analysis and the role of the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex in memory process and present state-of-the-art evidence supporting a possible use of TMS in the clinic.

The Neural Bases of the Short-Term Storage of Verbal Information Are Anatomically Variable across Individuals
- 2007
Psychology
The results support the view that the short-term retention of verbal information can be supported by regions associated with acoustic, lexical, phonological, and speech-based representation of information and suggest that the brain bases of some cognitive functions may be better detected by SS than by SNGA approaches to fMRI data analysis.

During maintenance of information in WM, the dorsolateral and the ventrolateral PFC exhibited linearly increasing activation in response to increasing WM load, suggesting an increasingly important role for the PFC in actively maintaining information as the amount of that information increases.

Psychology
Data from event-related functional MRI investigate the neural bases of two categories of mental processes believed to contribute to performance of an alphabetization working memory task: memory storage and memory manipulation to support the view that working memory is a faculty that arises from the coordinated interaction of computationally and neuroanatomically dissociable processes.

It can be concluded that within this network the DLPFC is mainly concerned with the mnemonic respresentation and the PPC with the sensory representation of spatially defined perceptual information.

It was observed that dorsal PFC plays a differentially greater role in information retrieval for slower subjects, possibly because of inefficient retrieval processes or a reduced quality of mnemonic representations.
Bilateral parieto‐frontal network for verbal working memory: an interference approach using repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS)

Psychology, Biology
The data provide evidence for a symmetrical, bilateral parieto‐frontal verbal working memory network and to assess possible hemispheric asymmetry with respect to the competing ideas of aParieto-frontal central executive network vs. a network that processes the inherent semantic and object features of the visually presented verbal stimuli in parallel.
