Traditional approaches to human information processing tend to deal with perception and
action planning in isolation, so that an adequate account of the perception-action interface is …

Multivariate pattern analysis (MVPA) has emerged as a powerful method for the analysis of
functional magnetic resonance imaging, electroencephalography and …

A connectionist model of human short-term memory is presented that extends the
“phonological loop”(AD Baddeley, 1986) to encompass serial order and learning …

Three solutions to the problem of serial order can be identified: chaining, ordinal and
positional theories. Error patterns in serial recall from short-term memory fail to support …

A computational model of human memory for serial order is described (OSCillator-based
Associative Recall [OSCAR]). In the model, successive list items become associated to …

Progress in understanding cognition requires a quantitative, theoretical framework,
grounded in the other natural sciences and able to bridge between implementational …

Speakers plan the phonological content of their utterances before their release as speech
motor acts. Using a finite alphabet of learned phonemes and a relatively small number of …

In everyday tasks, selecting actions in the proper sequence requires a continuously updated
representation of temporal context. Previous models have addressed this problem by …

Despite a century of research, the mechanisms underlying short-term or working memory for
serial order remain uncertain. Recent theoretical models have converged on a particular …

We introduce a distributed model of memory for serial order, called SOB, that produces
ordered serial recall by relying on encoding and retrieval processes that are endogenous to …
