Spatial selective attention and spatial working memory have largely been studied in
isolation. Studies of spatial attention have provided clear evidence that observers can bias …

Spatial working memory has been previously dissociated from other working memory
systems, but there has been relatively little previous research on the specific neural …

A variety of biological evidence has identified a frontal-parietal circuit underlying spatial
working memory for visual stimuli. But the question remains, how do these neural regions …

This article reports 3 experiments that tested a hypothesis regarding the nature of rehearsal
in spatial working memory, one in which discrete shifts of spatial selective attention mediate …

Spatial working memory is a cognitive brain mechanism that enables the temporary
maintenance and manipulation of spatial information. Recent neuroimaging and behavioral …

This paper reviews the recent findings on working memory, attention and eye movements.
We discuss the research that shows that many phenomena related to visual attention taking …

We investigated the hypothesis that the covert focusing of spatial attention mediates the on-
line maintenance of location information in spatial working memory. During the delay period …

Does a behavioral and anatomical division exist between spatial and object working
memory? In this article, we explore this question by testing human participants in simple …

Publisher Summary This chapter provides a broad overview of some current theoretical
arguments regarding working memory, focusing particularly on visuospatial cognition. It also …

The current study shows that spatial visual attention is used to retrieve information from
visual working memory. Participants had to keep four colored circles in visual working …
