Working Memory Capacity Limits Memory for Bindings
Journal of Cognition, 2019 I propose that the capacity of working memory places a specific limit on the maintenance of temporary bindings. Two experiments support this 'binding' hypothesis: Participants remembered word lists of varying length.

Working memory capacity as a dynamic process [PDF]
Frontiers in Psychology, 2013 A well-known characteristic of working memory is its limited capacity. The source of such limitations, however, is a continued point of debate.

Working Memory Capacity Depends on Attention Control, but Not Selective Attention [PDF]
Behavioral Sciences, 2023 Working memory and attention are interrelated constructs that are sometimes even considered indistinguishable. Since attention is not a uniform construct, it is possible that different types of attention affect working memory capacity differently.

Individual differences in working memory capacity and workload capacity [PDF]
Frontiers in Psychology, 2014 We investigated the relationship between working memory capacity (WMC) and workload capacity (WLC). Each participant performed an operation span (OSPAN) task to measure his/her WMC and three redundant-target detection tasks to measure his/her WLC.

The capacity and organization of gustatory working memory [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2022 Remembering a particular taste is crucial in food intake and associative learning. We investigated whether taste can be dynamically encoded, maintained, and retrieved on short time scales consistent with working memory (WM). We use novel single and multi-

Diminished activation of excitatory neurons in the prelimbic cortex leads to impaired working memory capacity in mice [PDF]
BMC Biology, 2023 Background Working memory capacity impairment is an early sign of Alzheimer's disease, but the underlying mechanisms remain unclear. Clarifying how working memory capacity is affected will help us better understand the pathological mechanism of Alzheimer'

Sensory stimulation enhances visual working memory capacity [PDF]
Communications PsychologyVisual working memory (vWM) plays a crucial role in visual information processing and higher cognitive functions; however, it has a very limited capacity. Recently, several studies have successfully modulated vWM capacity in humans using entrainment with

On the Relation between the Development of Working Memory Updating and Working Memory Capacity in Preschoolers [PDF]
Journal of Intelligence, 2022 This study aims at investigating the relationship between working memory updating and working memory capacity in preschool children. A sample of 176 preschoolers (36–74 months) was administered a working memory updating task (Magic House) along with ...

Feature versus object in interpreting working memory capacity [PDF]
npj Science of LearningThe debate about whether the capacity of working memory (WM) varies with the complexity of memory items continues. This study employed novel experimental materials to investigate the role of complexity in WM capacity.

Working memory’s workload capacity [PDF]
Memory & Cognition, 2015 We examined the role of dual-task interference in working memory using a novel dual two-back task that requires a redundant-target response (i.e., a response that neither the auditory nor the visual stimulus occurred two back versus a response that one or both occurred two back) on every trial.
