| Abstract(in English) | Mental manipulation of working memory is associated with the brain synchronization between frontal regions for the executive function and each sensory region. However, it is not clear about the causal and directional relationships among them within the brain network. Here, we stimulated some brain areas for the visual and auditory working memory tasks by the transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) and analyzed the electroencephalograph (EEG) phase synchronization. The EEG results showed that the TMS to the frontal and sensory areas increased the theta (3-8Hz) phase synchronization between the frontal and visual/auditory areas in the visual and auditory working memory tasks, respectively. The TMS to sensory area enhanced and accelerate the phase synchronization in comparison to the TMS to the frontal area. These results suggested that the theta phase synchronization, especially its bottom-up and subsequent top-down information flows would play an important role in manipulation of working memory. |
