A model of visual working memory in PFC
Neurocomputing, 2003Abstract We present a model of visual working memory in ventral prefrontal cortex. Activation in ventral PFC consists of reverberating activity. Representations in ventral PFC are conjunctions of location and (partial) identity representations.

Implicit visual working memory
Scandinavian Journal of Psychology, 2009Psychophysical studies of the short‐term memory for attributes or dimensions of the visual stimulus that are important in online perceptual processing of visual images – spatial frequency, orientation, contrast, motion – identify a low‐level perceptual memory mechanism.

Irrelevant Pictures in Visual Working Memory
The Quarterly Journal of Experimental Psychology A, 1996The aim of the paper is to establish firmly the phenomenon of an irrelevant picture effect and to demonstrate that the phenomenon can be used to investigate the characteristics of the visuo-spatial sketchpad. Experiment 1 introduces the use of dynamic visual noise as an interfering technique.

Weakness of visual working memory in autism
Autism Research, 2018Individuals with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) are often supported in daily life by visual presentations such as picture cards or illustrations. Therefore, they are considered to have visual strength. However, whether people with ASD are cognitively superior in visual processing and what causes the difference between visual and other sensory ...

An interference model of visual working memory.
Psychological Review, 2017The article introduces an interference model of working memory for information in a continuous similarity space, such as the features of visual objects. The model incorporates the following assumptions: (a) Probability of retrieval is determined by the relative activation of each retrieval candidate at the time of retrieval; (b) activation comes from 3

Executive Functioning and Visual Working Memory
Applied Neuropsychology: Adult, 2014The matter of modality is controversially discussed in the context of working memory (WM). There is evidence that modality-specific processes are accompanied by amodal processes to some extent. We investigated the relationship between executive-functioning tasks and visual WM (VWM) and were especially interested in the issue of amodal processes.

Spatial monitoring in visual working memory
British Journal of Psychology, 1989Three experiments examined the role of spatial monitoring in short‐term visual memory. In the first experiment it was found that with consonants presented visually at one location articulatory suppression but not a concurrent tracking task disrupted performance. Experiment 2 demonstrated that tracking was disruptive when consonants

Movement and Attention in Visual Working Memory
The Quarterly Journal of Experimental Psychology Section A, 1986Three experiments that adopt an interference technique to investigate the involvement of movement in the production of a spatial code are described. Arm movements rather than the more commonly employed eye movements are used to provide initial information about the sorts of movements relevant to the code and to allow an empirical separation of the ...

Visual distraction, working memory, and aging
Memory & Cognition, 1999In two experiments, the effects of taxing selective attention processes on the efficiency of working memory processes were considered in relation to normal aging. In both experiments, the presence of task-irrelevant information disrupted the efficiency of working memory processes, and the effect was generally greater for older than for younger adults ...

The effects of autobiographical memory and visual perspective on working memory
Memory, 2018The present research aims to explore whether recalling and writing about autobiographical memory from different perspectives (first-person perspective vs. third-person perspective) could affect cognitive function. The participants first performed a working memory task to evaluate their working memory capacity as a baseline and then were instructed to ...
