Description
Summary:While low WM capacity individuals improve on WM tasks with dopaminergic agonists, performance in high WM capacity individuals worsens (Kimberg, D'Esposito and Farah, 1997). [...]we have shown that WM capacity predicts dopamine synthesis, with high WM capacity individuals showing greater striatal dopamine levels (Cools et al., 2008).
