Good-enough attentional guidance
Theories of attention posit that attentional guidance operates on information held in a target
template within memory. The template is often thought to contain veridical target features …

Representation and computation in visual working memory
The ability to sustain internal representations of the sensory environment beyond immediate
perception is a fundamental requirement of cognitive processing. In recent years, debates …

[HTML][HTML] Attention for action in visual working memory
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 …

**ing the brain with visual impulses reveals electrically active, not activity-silent, working memories
Persistently active neurons during mnemonic periods have been regarded as the
mechanism underlying working memory maintenance. Alternatively, neuronal networks …

Revealing visual working memory operations with pupillometry: Encoding, maintenance, and prioritization
Pupillary dynamics reflect effects of distinct and important operations of visual working
memory: encoding, maintenance, and prioritization. Here, we review how pupil size predicts …

Bend but don't break: Prioritization protects working memory from displacement but leaves it vulnerable to distortion from distraction
Perceptual distraction distorts visual working memory representations. Previous research
has shown that memory responses are systematically biased towards passively viewed …

The passive state: A protective mechanism for information in working memory tasks.
Memory representations can be stored in a passive state in a visual working memory (VWM)
task. However, it remains unclear whether the representations stored in the passive state are …

[HTML][HTML] Working memory forgetting: Bridging gaps between human and animal studies
The causes of forgetting in working memory (WM) remain a source of debate in cognitive
psychology, partly because it has always been challenging to probe the complex neural …

To be or not to be relevant: Comparing short-and long-term consequences across working memory prioritization procedures
Priority-based allocation of attentional resources has shown robust effects in working
memory (WM) with both cue-based and reward-based prioritization. However, direct …
