Humans are remarkably adept at perceiving and understanding complex real-world scenes.
Uncovering the neural basis of this ability is an important goal of vision science …

Intense controversy surrounds the question of when children first understand that others can
hold false beliefs. Results from traditional tasks suggest that false-belief understanding does …

Is it possible to learn something without being aware of it? How does emotion influence the
way we think? How can we improve our memory? Fundamentals of Cognition, third edition …

Recent studies have provided conflicting accounts regarding where in the human brain
visual short-term memory (VSTM) content is stored, with strong univariate fMRI responses …

Attention is a core property of all perceptual and cognitive operations. Given limited capacity
to process competing options, attentional mechanisms select, modulate, and sustain focus …

Recent human fMRI pattern-decoding studies have highlighted the involvement of sensory
areas in visual working memory (VWM) tasks and argue for a sensory account of VWM …

How do we localise and identify target objects among distractors in visual scenes? The role
of selective attention in visual search has been studied for decades and the outlines of a …

The capacity to briefly memorize fleeting sensory information supports visual search and
behavioral interactions with relevant stimuli in the environment. Traditionally, studies …

The inferior parietal lobule (IPL) of the human brain is a heterogeneous region involved in
visuospatial attention, memory, and mathematical cognition. Detailed description of …

Visual working memory and visual attention are intimately related, such that working
memory encoding and maintenance reflects actively sustained attention to a limited number …
