Working Memory Predicts Long-Term Recognition of Auditory Sequences: Dissociation Between Confirmed Predictions and Prediction Errors.
Article in Scandinavian journal of psychology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Memory is a crucial cognitive process involving several subsystems: sensory memory (SM), short-term memory (STM), working memory (WM), and long-term memory (LTM). While each has been extensively studied, the interaction between subsystems, particularly in relation to predicting temporal sequences, remains largely unexplored. This study investigates the association between WM and LTM, and how these relate to aging and musical training. Using three datasets with a total of 243 healthy volunteers across various age groups, we examined the impact of WM, age, and musical training on LTM recognition of novel and previously memorized musical sequences. Our results show that WM abilities are positively associated with the identification of novel sequences, but not with the recognition of memorized sequences. Additionally, musical training has a similar positive impact on the identification of novel sequences, while increasing age is associated with reduced memory performance. Different cognitive processes are involved in handling prediction errors compared to confirmatory predictions, and WM contributes to these processes differently. Future research should extend our investigation to populations with memory impairments and explore the underlying neural substrates.
