The capacity of visual working memory for features and conjunctions
Steven J. Luck,Edward K. Vogel +1 more
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that it is possible to retain information about only four colours or orientations in visual working memory at one time, but it is also possible to retaining both the colour and the orientation of four objects, indicating that visual workingMemory stores integrated objects rather than individual features.
Journal ArticleDOI
Neural activity predicts individual differences in visual working memory capacity
TL;DR: This work provides electrophysiological evidence for lateralized activity in humans that reflects the encoding and maintenance of items in visual memory and provides a strong neurophysiological predictor of an individual's capacity, allowing a direct relationship between neural activity and memory capacity.
Journal ArticleDOI
Neural measures reveal individual differences in controlling access to working memory.
TL;DR: A neurophysiological measure is reported that gauges an individual's efficiency at excluding irrelevant items from being stored in memory and provides evidence that under many circumstances low capacity individuals may actually store more information in memory than high capacity individuals.
Journal ArticleDOI
Sensory gain control (amplification) as a mechanism of selective attention: electrophysiological and neuroimaging evidence
TL;DR: For instance, this paper found that sensory gain control or amplification processes play an important role in visual-spatial attention and that attentional gain control operates at an early stage of visual processing in extrastriate cortical areas.
Journal ArticleDOI
Storage of features, conjunctions and objects in visual working memory.
TL;DR: Objects defined by a conjunction of four features can be retained in working memory just as well as single-feature objects, allowing many individual features to be retained when distributed across a small number of objects.
