Flexible behavior requires guidance not only by sensations that are available immediately
but also by relevant mental contents carried forward through working memory. Therefore …

Selective attention comprises essential infrastructural functions supporting cognition—
anticipating, prioritizing, selecting, routing, integrating, and preparing signals to guide …

Covert spatial attention is associated with spatial modulation of neural activity as well as with
directional biases in fixational eye movements known as microsaccades. We studied how …

In the visual world, attention is guided by perceptual goals activated in visual working
memory (VWM). However, planning multiple-task sequences also requires VWM to store …

By linking the past with the future, our memories define our sense of identity. Because
human memory engages the conscious realm, its examination has historically been …

Memories are about the past, but they serve the future. Memory research often emphasizes
the former aspect: focusing on the functions that re-constitute (re-member) experience and …

Working memory serves as the buffer between past sensations and future behavior, making
it vital to understand not only how we encode and retain sensory information in memory but …

Brain areas that control gaze are also recruited for covert shifts of spatial attention,,,,,,,–. In
the external space of perception, there is a natural ecological link between the control of …

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 …

As we move around, relevant information that disappears from sight can still be held in
working memory to serve upcoming behaviour. How we maintain and select visual …
