The Impact of Auditory Working Memory Training on the Fronto-Parietal Working Memory Network
Working memory training has been widely used to investigate working memory processes. We have shown previously that visual working memory benefits only from intra-modal visual but not from across-modal auditory working memory training.

Visual working memory in young children [PDF]
Five experiments investigated immediate memory for drawings of familiar objects in children of different ages. The aims were to demonstrate younger children’s greater dependence on visual working memory and to explore the nature of this memory system. Experiment 1 showed that visual similarity of drawings impaired recall in young (5-year-old) children ...

Effect of verbal working memory load during the oculomotor activity in visual search
The structure of working memory has components responsible for the storage of verbal and visualspatial information; despite the fairly detailed study of the functions and mechanisms of their work, the question of their mutual influence is ...

Attention for action in visual working memory
From the conception of Baddeley's visuospatial sketchpad, visual working memory and visual attention have been closely linked concepts. An attractive model has advocated unity of the two cognitive functions, with attention serving the active maintenance of sensory representations.

A Dataset and Architecture for Visual Reasoning with a Working Memory [PDF]
A vexing problem in artificial intelligence is reasoning about events that occur in complex, changing visual stimuli such as in video analysis or game play. Inspired by a rich tradition of visual reasoning and memory in cognitive psychology and neuroscience, we developed an artificial, configurable visual question and answer dataset (COG) to parallel ...

Multiple Time Intervals of Visual Events Are Represented as Discrete Items in Working Memory
Previous studies on time perception and temporal memory have focused primarily on single time intervals; it is still unclear how multiple time intervals are perceived and maintained in working memory.

Working memory expedites the processing of visual signals within the extrastriate cortex
Summary: Working memory is the ability to maintain information in the absence of sensory input. In this study, we investigated how working memory benefits processing in visual areas.

Visual working memory for simple and complex visual stimuli [PDF]
Does the magical number four characterize our visual working memory (VWM) capacity for all kinds of objects, or is the capacity of VWM inversely related to the perceptual complexity of those objects? To find out how perceptual complexity affects VWM, we used a change detection task to measure VWM capacity for six types of stimuli of different ...

Semantic knowledge influences visual working memory in adults and children.
We can retain only a portion of the visual information that we encounter within our visual working memory. Which factors influence how much information we can remember?
