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 …

We establish a new dissociation between the roles of working memory (WM) cognitive
control and visual maintenance in selective attention as measured by the efficiency of …

Visual working memory (VWM) recruits a broad network of brain regions, including
prefrontal, parietal, and visual cortices. Recent evidence supports a “sensory recruitment” …

For visual working memory to serve upcoming behavior, it is crucial that we prepare for the
potential use of working-memory contents ahead of time. Recent studies have demonstrated …

From the conception of Baddeley's visuospatial sketchpad, visual working memory and
visual attention have been closely linked concepts. An attractive model has advocated unity …

Recent studies have revealed a strong relationship between visual working memory and
selective attention, such that attention is biased by what is currently on our mind. However …

Perception is shaped by actions, which determine the allocation of selective attention across
the visual field. Here, we review evidence that maintenance in visual working memory is …

Protecting working-memory content from distracting external sensory inputs and intervening
tasks is an ubiquitous demand in daily life. Here, we ask whether and how temporal …

Visual working memory (VWM), the ability to temporarily maintain and manipulate
information, underlies a variety of critical high-level behaviours from directing attention,,–to …

Recent work has highlighted the role of early visual areas in visual working memory (VWM)
storage and put forward a sensory storage account of VWM. Using a distractor interference …
