Turning attention inside out: How working memory serves behavior
Flexible behavior requires guidance not only by sensations that are available immediately
but also by relevant mental contents carried forward through working memory. Therefore …

Distraction in visual working memory: Resistance is not futile
Over half a century of research focused on understanding how working memory is capacity
constrained has overshadowed the fact that it is also remarkably resistant to interference …

Shared mechanisms underlie the control of working memory and attention
MF Panichello, TJ Buschman - Nature, 2021 - nature.com
Cognitive control guides behaviour by controlling what, when, and how information is
represented in the brain. For example, attention controls sensory processing; top-down …

Causal evidence for a role of theta and alpha oscillations in the control of working memory
Working memory (WM) relies on the prioritization of relevant information and suppression of
irrelevant information [1, 2]. Prioritizing relevant information has been linked to theta …
