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.

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).

Poor Sleep Quality and Compromised Visual Working Memory Capacity. [PDF]
AbstractObjectives:Reduction in the amount of information (storage capacity) retained in working memory (WM) has been associated with sleep loss. The present study examined whether reduced WM capacity is also related to poor everyday sleep quality and, more importantly, whether the effects of sleep quality could be dissociated from the effects of ...

Feature-based change detection reveals inconsistent individual differences in visual working memory capacity [PDF]
Visual working memory (VWM) is a key cognitive system that enables people to hold visual information in mind after a stimulus has been removed and compare past and present to detect changes that have occurred. VWM is severely capacity limited to around 3-

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 ...

The contribution of attentional lapses to individual differences in visual working memory capacity. [PDF]
Abstract Attentional control and working memory capacity are important cognitive abilities that substantially vary between individuals. Although much is known about how attentional control and working memory capacity relate to each other and to constructs like fluid intelligence, little is known about how trial-by-trial fluctuations in ...

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 ...
