Visual working memory capacity in Korsakoff’s amnesia [PDF]
Introduction: Despite the interest in memory functioning in Korsakoff's syndrome (KS), visual working memory capacity in KS is still poorly understood. Results from the last decades on working memory limitations in KS appear to be mixed, clearly calling for further investigations.Method: We investigated visual working memory storage capacity of ...

Frontoparietal tDCS Benefits Visual Working Memory in Older Adults With Low Working Memory Capacity [PDF]
Working memory (WM) permits maintenance of information over brief delays and is an essential executive function. Unfortunately, WM is subject to age-related decline.

Meaningfulness and familiarity expand visual working memory capacity
Visual working memory is traditionally studied using abstract, meaningless stimuli. While studies using such simplified stimuli have been insightful in understanding the mechanisms of visual working memory, they also potentially undermine our ability to understand how people encode and store conceptually rich and meaningful stimuli in the real world ...

Visual Working Memory Capacity for Emotional Facial Expressions
The capacity of visual working memory is limited to no more than four items. At the same time, it is limited not only by the number of objects, but also by the total amount of information that needs to be memorized, and the relation between the ...

The reliability of estimating visual working memory capacity. [PDF]
AbstractThe reliability of estimations of working memory capacity has not been thoroughly examined. The present study examined the test-retest reliability for working memory capacity as estimated in a lateralized change detection task, which is frequently used in studies involving electroencephalography.

The reliability and stability of visual working memory capacity. [PDF]
Because of the central role of working memory capacity in cognition, many studies have used short measures of working memory capacity to examine its relationship to other domains. Here, we measured the reliability and stability of visual working memory capacity, measured using a single-probe change detection task. In Experiment 1, the participants (N =

Effects of strategy on visual working memory capacity. [PDF]
Substantial evidence suggests that individual differences in estimates of working memory capacity reflect differences in how effectively people use their intrinsic storage capacity. This suggests that estimated capacity could be increased by instructions that encourage more effective encoding strategies.

Visual working memory capacity and the medial temporal lobe. [PDF]
Patients with medial temporal lobe (MTL) damage are sometimes impaired at remembering visual information across delays as short as a few seconds. Such impairments could reflect either impaired visual working memory capacity or impaired long-term memory (because attention has been diverted or because working memory capacity has been exceeded).

Discrete capacity limits in visual working memory [PDF]
The amount of information we can actively maintain 'in mind' is very limited. This capacity limitation, known as working memory (WM) capacity, has been of great interest because of its wide scope influence on the variety of intellectual abilities. Recently, there has been an ongoing debate about how this capacity should be best characterized.
