Temporal expectation improves recognition memory for spatially attended objects

Abstract/Results: Abstract
Recent evidence suggests that temporal expectation is beneficial to memory formation. Rhythmic presentation of stimuli during encoding enhances subsequent recognition and is associated with distinct neural activity compared with when stimuli are presented in an arrhythmic manner. However, no prior study has examined how temporal expectation interacts with another important form of facilitation—spatial attention—to affect memory. This study systematically manipulated temporal expectation and spatial attention during encoding to examine their combined effect on behavioral recognition and associated ERPs. Participants performed eight experimental blocks consisting of an encoding phase and recognition test, with EEG recorded throughout. During encoding, pairs of objects and checkerboards were presented and participants were cued to attend to the left or right stream and detect targets as quickly as possible. In four blocks, stimulus presentation followed a rhythmic (constant, predictable) temporal structure, and in the other four blocks, stimulus onset was arrhythmic (random, unpredictable). An interaction between temporal expectation and spatial attention emerged, with greater recognition in the rhythmic than the arrhythmic condition for spatially attended items. Analysis of memory-specific ERP components uncovered effects of spatial attention. There were late positive component and FN400 old/new effects in the attended condition for both rhythmic and arrhythmic items, whereas in the unattended condition, there was an FN400 old/new effect and no late positive component effect. The study provides new evidence that memory improvement as a function of temporal expectation is dependent upon spatial attention.

Abstract/Results:
ABSTRACT:
BACKGROUND
This project investigated how the rhythmic presentation of stimuli (temporal expectation) affects memory. Temporal expectation enhances various cognitive processes, yet little research has examined how this affects memory.
AIMS
We aimed to examine the effect of temporal expectation on behavioural recogniton, with EEG recording to investigate the underlying neural mechanisms.
METHOD
In three experiments participants were presented with images of objects during encoding (with either rhythmic or arrhythmic onset timings) prior to a recognition test. Experiment 1 also manipulated spatial attention. Experiment 2 included a temporal sequence condition in which participants learned when to expect the next item to appear based on a repeating sequence of presentation timings, and Experiment 3 examined whether presenting items out of synchrony with an entrained rhythm would be particularly detrimental to memory.
RESULTS
In Experiment 1 rhythmic presentation benefited memory for spatially attended objects, and was associated with differential neural activity compared with when stimuli were presented in an arrhythmic manner. However, in Experiment 2 there was no effect of rhythm or temporal position, and no evidence from Experiment 3 that presenting items out of synchrony with rhythm was detrimental to memory.
CONCLUSIONS
Initial findings suggested that rhythmic presentation of stimuli in the attended field leads to enhanced recognition and distinct neural processing. However, subsequent experiments revealed no effect of temporal structure on memory, suggesting that the effect is likely very small.

Null effects of temporal prediction on recognition memory but evidence for differential neural activity at encoding. A registered report

Abstract/Results: ABSTRACT:
Previous research has demonstrated that rhythmic presentation of stimuli during encoding boosts subsequent recognition and is associated with distinct neural activity compared with when stimuli are presented in an arrhythmic manner. However, it is unclear whether the effect is driven by automatic entrainment to rhythm or non-rhythmic temporal prediction. This registered report presents an EEG study aimed at establishing the cognitive and neural mechanisms of the effect of temporal prediction on recognition. In a blocked design, stimulus onset during encoding was systematically manipulated in four conditions prior to recognition testing: rhythmic fixed (RF), rhythmic variable (RV), arrhythmic fixed (AF), and arrhythmic variable (AV). By orthogonally varying rhythm and temporal position we were able to assess their independent contributions to recognition enhancement. Our behavioural results did not replicate previous findings that show a difference in recognition memory based on temporal predictability at encoding. However, ERP component analysis did show an early (N1) interaction effect of temporal position and rhythm, and later (N2 and Dm) effects driven by temporal position only. Taken together, we observed effects of temporal prediction at encoding, but these differences did not translate to later effects of memory, suggesting that effects of temporal prediction on recognition are less robust than previously thought.
