Do objects in working memory compete with objects in perception?

, 2010
It is generally assumed that "perceptual object" is the basic unit for processing visual information and that only a small number of objects can be either perceptually selected or encoded in working memory (WM) at one time.

Gestalt Effects in Visual Working Memory. [PDF]

Experimental psychology, 2015
Four experiments investigated whether conforming to Gestalt principles, well known to drive visual perception, also facilitates the active maintenance of information in visual working memory (VWM). We used the change detection task, which required the memorization of visual patterns composed of several shapes.

How Does Processing Affect Storage in Working Memory Tasks? Evidence for Both Domain-General and Domain-Specific Effects

, 2011
Two studies that examine whether the forgetting caused by the processing demands of working memory tasks is domain-general or domain-specific are presented. In each, separate groups of adult participants were asked to carry out either verbal or nonverbal

Developmental changes in the engagement of episodic retrieval processes and their relationship with working memory during the period of middle childhood. [PDF]

, 2011
We examined the development of children’s engagement of the episodic retrieval processes of recollection and familiarity and their relationship with working memory (WM).

Turning Symbolic: The representation of motion direction in working memory

Frontiers in Psychology, 2016
What happens to the representation of a moving stimulus when it is no longer present and its motion direction has to be maintained in working memory (WM)?

A Behavioural and Electrophysiological exploration of the Working Memory impairment in Developmental Dyslexia [PDF]

, 2015
The current thesis provides a behavioural and electrophysiological exploration of Working Memory (WM) processing in developmental dyslexia. This thesis identifies a debate in the literature regarding the extent to which individuals with dyslexia have a ...

The Simultaneous Type, Serial Token Model of Temporal Attention and Working Memory [PDF]

, 2007
A detailed description of the Simultaneous Type Serial Token (STST) model is presented. STST is a model of temporal attention and working memory, which encapsulates five principles: 1) Chun and Potter's (1995) 2-stage model; 2) a stage one Salience ...

Distinct causal mechanisms of attentional guidance by working memory and repetition priming in early visual cortex

, 2012
Human attention may be guided by representations held in working memory (WM) and also by priming from implicit memory. Neurophysiological data suggest that WM and priming may be associated with distinct neural mechanisms, but this prior evidence is only ...

Effective visual working memory capacity: an emergent effect from the neural dynamics in an attractor network.

PLoS ONE, 2012
The study of working memory capacity is of outmost importance in cognitive psychology as working memory is at the basis of general cognitive function.
