Prestimulus functional connectivity reflects attention orientation in a prospective memory task: A magnetoencephalographic (MEG) study.

ABSTRACT: Prospective Memory (PM) is the ability to encode an intention in memory and retrieve it at the right time in the future. After the intention is formed, it must be maintained in memory while simultaneously monitoring the environment until the occurrence of the stimulus associated with its retrieval. Therefore, monitoring and maintenance processes must work in conjunction to subserve PM processing (monitoring/maintenance phase). Several brain regions play a role in PM, such as the anterior prefrontal cortex, inferior parietal lobules, and precuneus. Notably, these regions belong to different brain networks and are differently involved depending on the memory and attentional requests of the PM task. In this study, we investigate the neural bases of PM from a network perspective, using functio
