The binding pool: A model of shared neural resources for distinct items in visual working memory

G Swan, B Wyble - Attention, Perception, & Psychophysics, 2014 - Springer
Visual working memory (VWM) refers to the ability to encode, store, and retrieve visual
information. The two prevailing theories that describe VWM assume that information is …

Psychophysical scaling reveals a unified theory of visual memory strength

MW Schurgin, JT Wixted, TF Brady - Nature human behaviour, 2020 - nature.com
Almost all models of visual memory implicitly assume that errors in mnemonic
representations are linearly related to distance in stimulus space. Here we show that neither …

Clear evidence for item limits in visual working memory

KCS Adam, EK Vogel, E Awh - Cognitive psychology, 2017 - Elsevier
There is a consensus that visual working memory (WM) resources are sharply limited, but
debate persists regarding the simple question of whether there is a limit to the total number …

The topography of alpha-band activity tracks the content of spatial working memory

JJ Foster, DW Sutterer, JT Serences… - Journal of …, 2016 - journals.physiology.org
Working memory (WM) is a system for the online storage of information. An emerging view is
that neuronal oscillations coordinate the cellular assemblies that code the content of WM. In …

The hippocampus supports high‐precision binding in visual working memory

AA Borders, C Ranganath, AP Yonelinas - Hippocampus, 2022 - Wiley Online Library
It is well established that the hippocampus is critical for long‐term episodic memory, but a
growing body of research suggests that it also plays a critical role in supporting memory over …

Alpha-band activity reveals spontaneous representations of spatial position in visual working memory

JJ Foster, EM Bsales, RJ Jaffe, E Awh - Current Biology, 2017 - cell.com
An emerging view suggests that spatial position is an integral component of working
memory (WM), such that non-spatial features are bound to locations regardless of whether …

The role of meaning in visual working memory: Real-world objects, but not simple features, benefit from deeper processing.

TF Brady, VS Störmer - Journal of Experimental Psychology …, 2022 - psycnet.apa.org
Visual working memory is a capacity-limited cognitive system used to actively store and
manipulate visual information. Visual working memory capacity is not fixed, but varies by …

Revealing hidden states in visual working memory using electroencephalography

MJ Wolff, J Ding, NE Myers, MG Stokes - Frontiers in systems …, 2015 - frontiersin.org
It is often assumed that information in visual working memory (vWM) is maintained via
persistent activity. However, recent evidence indicates that information in vWM could be …

[HTML][HTML] QUEST+: A general multidimensional Bayesian adaptive psychometric method

AB Watson - Journal of Vision, 2017 - jov.arvojournals.org
QUEST+ is a Bayesian adaptive psychometric testing method that allows an arbitrary
number of stimulus dimensions, psychometric function parameters, and trial outcomes. It is a …

Flexible coding of visual working memory representations during distraction

ES Lorenc, KK Sreenivasan, DE Nee… - Journal of …, 2018 - Soc Neuroscience
Visual working memory (VWM) recruits a broad network of brain regions, including
prefrontal, parietal, and visual cortices. Recent evidence supports a “sensory recruitment” …
