Turning attention inside out: How working memory serves behavior

F Van Ede, AC Nobre - Annual review of psychology, 2023 - annualreviews.org

[HTML][HTML] Prioritizing flexible working memory representations through retrospective attentional strengthening

D Li, Y Hu, M Qi, C Zhao, O Jensen, J Huang, Y Song - NeuroImage, 2023 - Elsevier
