characterized by a wealth of empirical findings. It is currently unrealistic to expect a theory to …

Recent theoretical models propose that working memory is mediated by rapid transitions

Working memory (WM) provides the functional backbone to high-level cognition.
Maintenance in WM is often assumed to depend on the stationary persistence of neural …

Working memory (WM) has limited capacity. This leaves attention with the important role of
allowing into storage only the most relevant information. It is increasingly evident that …

The goal of consciousness research is to reveal the neural basis of phenomenal experience.
