Attention with or without working memory: mnemonic reselection of attended information
Attention has been regarded as the 'gatekeeper'controlling what information gets selected
into working memory. However, a new perspective has emerged with the discovery of …

Does consciousness overflow cognitive access? Novel insights from the new phenomenon of attribute amnesia
The moment we open our eyes, we experience a rich and detailed visual world, but the
amount of information available to report is rather limited. This dissociation relates to a major …

A model of working memory for latent representations
We propose a mechanistic explanation of how working memories are built and
reconstructed from the latent representations of visual knowledge. The proposed model …

Meaningful objects avoid attribute amnesia due to incidental long-term memories
Attribute amnesia describes the failure to unexpectedly report the attribute of an attended
stimulus, likely reflecting a lack of working memory consolidation. Previous studies have …

Children exhibit superior memory for attended but outdated information compared to adults
Research on the development of cognitive selectivity predominantly focuses on attentional
selection. The present study explores another facet of cognitive selectivity—memory …

A metacognitive perspective of visual working memory with rich complex objects
Visual working memory (VWM) has been extensively studied in the context of memory
capacity. However, less research has been devoted to the metacognitive processes involved …

And like that, they were gone: A failure to remember recently attended unique faces
Attribute amnesia (AA) is a phenomenon in which participants have difficulty answering an
unexpected question about an attended attribute of the most recent target stimulus. A similar …

Slip** through the cracks: The peril of unexpected interruption on the contents of working memory.
Working memory allows us to hold specific pieces of information in an active and easily
retrieved state, but what happens to that information during an unexpected interruption …
