Contralateral delay activity tracks the influence of Gestalt grouping principles on active visual working memory representations
DJ Peterson, F Gözenman, H Arciniega… - Attention, Perception, & …, 2015 - Springer
Recent studies have demonstrated that factors influencing perception, such as Gestalt
grouping cues, can influence the storage of information in visual working memory (VWM). In …

Between-item similarity frees up working memory resources through compression: A domain-general property.
Compression, the ability to recode information in a denser format, is a core property of
working memory (WM). Previous studies have shown that the ability to compress information …

Current directions in visual working memory research: An introduction and emerging insights
HR Liesefeld, HJ Müller - British Journal of Psychology, 2019 - Wiley Online Library
Visual working memory (VWM) is a core construct in the cognitive (neuro‐) sciences,
assumed to serve as a hub for information exchange and thus supporting a multitude of …

Object-based grouping benefits without integrated feature representations in visual working memory
Visual working memory (VWM) is typically considered to represent complete objects—that is,
separate parts of an object are maintained as bound objects. Yet it remains unclear whether …

Evidence for the beneficial effect of perceptual grouping on visual working memory: An empirical study on illusory contour and a meta-analytic study
J Li, J Qian, F Liang - Scientific reports, 2018 - nature.com
The capacity of visual working memory (VWM) is found to be extremely limited. Past
research shows that VWM can be facilitated by Gestalt principles of grouping, however, it …

Retrospective cues based on object features improve visual working memory performance in older adults
Research with younger adults has shown that retrospective cues can be used to orient top-
down attention toward relevant items in working memory. We examined whether older adults …

Can compression take place in working memory without a central contribution of long-term memory?
Abstract Information is easier to remember when it is recognized as structured. One
explanation for this benefit is that people represent structured information in a compressed …

Perceptual grouping boosts visual working memory capacity and reduces effort during retention
CC Morey - British Journal of Psychology, 2019 - Wiley Online Library
Consistent, robust boosts to visual working memory capacity are observed when colour–
location arrays contain duplicate colours. The prevailing explanation suggests that …

Perceptual grouping reveals distinct roles for sustained slow wave activity and alpha oscillations in working memory
Multiple neural signals have been found to track the number of items stored in working
memory (WM). These signals include oscillatory activity in the alpha band and slow-wave …

The color-sharing bonus: Roles of perceptual organization and attentive processes in visual working memory.
Color repetitions in a visual scene boost working memory capacity for its elements, a
phenomenon known as the color-sharing effect. This may occur because improved …
