Visual working memory capacity and proactive interference. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2008
Visual working memory capacity is extremely limited and appears to be relatively immune to practice effects or the use of explicit strategies. The recent discovery that visual working memory tasks, like verbal working memory tasks, are subject to ...

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.

Comparing visual and auditory working memory in adults with stutter and normal adults [PDF]

open access: yesفصلنامه علمی- پژوهشی اصول بهداشت روانی, 2022
Introduction: Developmental stuttering is a neurological disorder commonly manifested as a motor problem. Cognitive theories, however, hold that poorly developed cognitive abilities are the origins of stuttering.

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.

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.

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.

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.

Insensitivity of visual short-term memory to irrelevant visual information [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
Several authors have hypothesised that visuo-spatial working memory is functionally analogous to verbal working memory. Irrelevant background speech impairs verbal short-term memory.

Joint attention enhances visual working memory. [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2017
Joint attention-the mutual focus of 2 individuals on an item-speeds detection and discrimination of target information. However, what happens to that information beyond the initial perceptual episode? To fully comprehend and engage with our immediate environment also requires working memory (WM), which integrates information from second to second to ...

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.
