Retrospective Attention Interacts with Stimulus Strength to Shape Working Memory Performance
Orienting attention retrospectively to selective contents in working memory (WM) influences performance. A separate line of research has shown that stimulus strength shapes perceptual representations. There is little research on how stimulus strength during encoding shapes WM performance, and how effects of retrospective orienting might vary with changes in stimulus strength. We explore these q...
متن کاملThe benefits of stimulus-driven attention for working memory encoding
The present study investigates how stimulus-driven attention to relevant information affects working memory performance. In three experiments, we examine whether stimulus-driven attention to items can improve retention of these items in working memory. Lists of phonologically-similar and dissimilar items were presented at expected or unexpected locations in Experiment 1. When stimulus-driven at...
متن کاملA neural model of retrospective attention in visual working memory
An informative cue that directs attention to one of several items in working memory improves subsequent recall of that item. Here we examine the mechanism of this retro-cue effect using a model of short-term memory based on neural population coding. Our model describes recalled feature values as the output of an optimal decoding of spikes generated by a tuned population of neurons. This neural ...
متن کاملProspective memory, working memory, retrospective memory and self-rated memory performance in persons with intellectual disability
The purpose of the present study was to examine the relationship between prospective memory, working memory, retrospective memory and self-rated memory capacity in adults with and without intellectual disability. Individuals with intellectual disability performed at a lower level on most tasks compared to persons without intellectual disability, and the task performances were to a higher degree...
متن کاملAttention and working memory
Recent empirical and theoretical work has depicted a close relationship between visual attention and visual working memory. For example, rehearsal in spatial working memory depends on spatial attention, whereas adding a secondary spatial working memory task impairs attentional deployment in visual search. These findings have led to the proposal that working memory is attention directed toward i...
