Multiple neural states of representation in short-term memory? It'sa matter of attention

JJ LaRocque, JA Lewis-Peacock… - Frontiers in human …, 2014 - frontiersin.org
Short-term memory (STM) refers to the capacity-limited retention of information over a brief
period of time, and working memory (WM) refers to the manipulation and use of that …

Top-down influences on ambiguous perception: the role of stable and transient states of the observer

L Scocchia, M Valsecchi, J Triesch - Frontiers in human neuroscience, 2014 - frontiersin.org
The world as it appears to the viewer is the result of a complex process of inference
performed by the brain. The validity of this apparently counter-intuitive assertion becomes …

Visual working memory enhances the neural response to matching visual input

S Gayet, M Guggenmos, TB Christophel… - Journal of …, 2017 - Soc Neuroscience
Visual working memory (VWM) is used to maintain visual information available for

[HTML][HTML] Working memory retrieval as a decision process

B Pearson, J Raškevičius, PM Bays, Y Pertzov… - Journal of …, 2014 - iovs.arvojournals.org
Working memory (WM) is a core cognitive process fundamental to human behavior, yet the
mechanisms underlying it remain highly controversial. Here we provide a new framework for …

Visual input that matches the content of visual working memory requires less (not faster) evidence sampling to reach conscious access

S Gayet, L van Maanen, M Heilbron… - Journal of …, 2016 - jov.arvojournals.org
The content of visual working memory (VWM) affects the processing of concurrent visual

Visual working memory modulates low-level saccade target selection: Evidence from rapidly generated saccades in the global effect paradigm

A Hollingworth, M Matsukura, SJ Luck - Journal of Vision, 2013 - jov.arvojournals.org
In three experiments, we examined the influence of visual working memory (VWM) on the
metrics of saccade landing position in a global effect paradigm. Participants executed a …

Expectations affect the perception of material properties

LM Alley, AC Schmid, K Doerschner - Journal of Vision, 2020 - jov.arvojournals.org
Many objects that we encounter have typical material qualities: spoons are hard, pillows are
soft, and Jell-O dessert is wobbly. Over a lifetime of experiences, strong associations …

The influence of action-effect anticipation on bistable perception: differences between onset rivalry and ambiguous motion

M Dogge, S Gayet, R Custers… - Neuroscience of …, 2018 - academic.oup.com
Perception is strongly shaped by the actions we perform. According to the theory of event

[HTML][HTML] Interindividual differences in preferred directions of perceptual and motor decisions

AC Schütz - Journal of vision, 2014 - jov.arvojournals.org
Both the perceptual system and the motor system can be faced with ambiguous information
