Oscillatory brain activity and maintenance of verbal and visual working memory: A systematic review.

Psychophysiology, 2020
Brain oscillations likely play a significant role in the storage of information in working memory (WM). Despite the wide popularity of the topic, current attempts to summarize the research in the field are narrative reviews.

Joint attention enhances visual working memory. [PDF]

Journal 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 ...

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

, 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.

PyVDT: A PsychoPy-Based Visual Sequence Detection Task

Journal 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.

Changes in the capacity of visual working memory in 5- to 10-year-olds [PDF]

, 2006
Using the Luck and Vogel change detection paradigm, we sought to investigate the capacity of visual working memory in 5-, 7-, and 10-year-olds. We found that performance on the task improved significantly with age and also obtained evidence that the ...

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

PLoS 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

Frontiers 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.

Visuospatial tasks suppress craving for cigarettes. [PDF]

, 2010
The Elaborated Intrusion (EI) theory of desire posits that visual imagery plays a key role in craving. We report a series of experiments testing this hypothesis in a drug addiction context.

The role of meaning in visual working memory: Real-world objects, but not simple features, benefit from deeper processing.

Journal of Experimental Psychology. Learning, Memory and Cognition, 2020
Visual working memory is a capacity-limited cognitive system used to actively store and manipulate visual information. Visual working memory capacity is not fixed, but varies by stimulus type: Stimuli that are more meaningful are better remembered.

Supramodality of neural entrainment: Rhythmic visual stimulation causally enhances auditory working memory performance

Science Advances, 2022
The frontoparietal network is involved in multiple tasks, such as visual mental rotation, working memory, or arithmetic. Whether those different cognitive processes are supported by the same supramodal network or distinct, but overlapping, functional ...
