Traditional memory research has focused on identifying separate memory systems and
exploring different stages of memory processing. This approach has been valuable for …

Recent human fMRI pattern-decoding studies have highlighted the involvement of sensory
areas in visual working memory (VWM) tasks and argue for a sensory account of VWM …

Working memory can be divided into separate subsystems for verbal and visual information.
Although the verbal system has been well characterized, the storage capacity of visual …

Previous studies have suggested that visual short-term memory (VSTM) has a storage limit
of approximately four items. However, the type of high-threshold (HT) model used to derive …

Sensory working memory consists of the short-term storage of sensory stimuli to guide
behaviour. There is increasing evidence that elemental sensory dimensions—such as object …

The information that individuals can hold in working memory is quite limited, but researchers
have typically studied this capacity using simple objects or letter strings with no associations …

When we observe our visual environment, we do not perceive all its components as being
equally interesting. Some objects automatically and effortlessly “pop-out” from their …

The integrated object view of visual working memory (WM) argues that objects (rather than
features) are the building block of visual WM, so that adding an extra feature to an object …

Les conséquences du vieillissement normal sur les capacités perceptives et la mémoire de
travail visuelle seront abordées dans cet article. Nous y discuterons en particulier des …

Recent behavioral studies have given rise to two contrasting models for limited working
memory capacity: a “discrete-slot” model in which memory items are stored in a limited …
