Age-Related Change in Visual Working Memory: A study of 55,753 Participants Aged 8 to 75
Frontiers in Psychology, 2013 Visual working memory abilities of 55,753 individuals between the ages of 8 and 75 were assessed to provide the most fine-grain analysis of age-related change in visual working memory to date. Results showed that visual working memory changes throughout

Processing speed and visuospatial executive function predict visual working memory ability in older adults [PDF]
, 2012 Visual working memory (VWM) has been shown to be particularly age sensitive. Determining which measures share variance with this cognitive ability in older adults may help to elucidate the key factors underlying the effects of aging.

Attention to attributes and objects in working memory [PDF]
, 2013 It has been debated on the basis of change-detection procedures whether visual working memory is limited by the number of objects, task-relevant attributes within those objects, or bindings between attributes.

Microsaccades and Visual-Spatial Working Memory
Journal of Eye Movement Research, 2012 Observers performed working memory tasks at varying retinal eccentricities, fixating centrally while microsaccade rates and directions were monitored. We show that microsaccades generate no interference in a working memory task, indicating that spatial ...

The role of attention in binding visual features in working memory : evidence from cognitive ageing [PDF]
, 2009 Two experiments were conducted to assess the costs of attentional load during a feature (colour-shape) binding task in younger and older adults. Experiment 1 showed that a demanding backwards counting task, which draws upon central executive/general ...

Distinct visual working memory systems for view-dependent and view-invariant representation. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2009 BACKGROUND:How do people sustain a visual representation of the environment? Currently, many researchers argue that a single visual working memory system sustains non-spatial object information such as colors and shapes.
