Prospective memory and working memory: Asymmetrical effects during frontal lobe TMS stimulation

▶ Prospective memory needs working memory resources only at high demand. ▶ PM and WM are only partially based on a common neural substrate. ▶ PM is not only related to the frontopolar cortex, but also to dorsolateral PFC. ▶ TMS resulted as a technique suitable to study high-level cognitive processes.
