High visual working memory capacity in trait social anxiety. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
Working memory capacity is one of the most important cognitive functions influencing individual traits, such as attentional control, fluid intelligence, and also psychopathological traits.

Autistic traits are associated with enhanced working memory capacity for abstract visual stimuli

open access: yesActa Psychologica, 2023
We tested whether the association between autistic traits and enhanced performance in visual-perceptual tasks extends to visual working memory capacity.

Visual working memory performance in aphantasia [PDF]

open access: yesCortex, 2018
Aphantasia, i.e., the congenital inability to experience voluntary mental imagery, offers a new model for studying the functional role of mental imagery in (visual) cognition. However, until now, there have been no studies investigating whether aphantasia can be linked to specific impairments in cognitive functioning.

Neural Substrates of Visual Perception and Working Memory: Two Sides of the Same Coin or Two Different Coins?

open access: yesFrontiers in Neural Circuits, 2021
Visual perception occurs when a set of physical signals emanating from the environment enter the visual system and the brain interprets such signals as a percept.

Frontoparietal tDCS Benefits Visual Working Memory in Older Adults With Low Working Memory Capacity

open access: yesFrontiers in Aging Neuroscience, 2018
Working memory (WM) permits maintenance of information over brief delays and is an essential executive function. Unfortunately, WM is subject to age-related decline.

PyVDT: A PsychoPy-Based Visual Sequence Detection Task

open access: yesJournal of Open Research Software, 2016
PyVDT is a computerized test consisting of two brief visual sequence detection tasks in which participants watch single digits displayed on screen and respond whenever target digit sequences (even – odd – even) are displayed.

Visual working memory contaminates perception [PDF]

open access: yesPsychonomic Bulletin & Review, 2011
Indirect evidence suggests that the contents of visual working memory may be maintained within sensory areas early in the visual hierarchy. We tested this possibility using a well-studied motion repulsion phenomenon in which perception of one direction of motion is distorted when another direction of motion is viewed simultaneously.

Visual working memory capacity does not modulate the feature-based information filtering in visual working memory.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2011
BackgroundThe limited capacity of visual working memory (VWM) requires us to select the task relevant information and filter out the irrelevant information efficiently.

Individual Differences in Working Memory and the N2pc

open access: yesFrontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2021
The lateralized ERP N2pc component has been shown to be an effective marker of attentional object selection when elicited in a visual search task, specifically reflecting the selection of a target item among distractors.

Auditory and visual spatial working memory [PDF]

open access: yesMemory & Cognition, 2006
A series of experiments compared short-term memory for object locations in the auditory and visual modalities. The stimulus materials consisted of sounds and pictures presented at different locations in space. Items were presented in pure- or mixed-modality lists of increasing length.
