Both in everyday life and in memory research, people tend to think that items are 'held'in
mind, in the same way that a real-world object can be held in one's hand. Inspired by this …

Almost all models of visual memory implicitly assume that errors in mnemonic
representations are linearly related to distance in stimulus space. Here we show that neither …

Research on working memory (WM) has followed two largely independent traditions: One
concerned with memory for sequentially presented lists of discrete items, and the other with …

Change detection tasks are commonly used to measure and understand the nature of visual
working memory capacity. Across three experiments, we examine whether the nature of the …

How working memory (WM) resists perceptual distraction with its limited capacity is a
fundamental question to understand its mechanism. To address this question, we used a …

Memory for objects in a display sometimes reveals attraction—the objects are remembered
as more similar to one another than they actually were—and sometimes reveals repulsion …

Retro-cues (ie, cues presented between the offset of a memory array and the onset of a
probe) have consistently been found to enhance performance in working memory tasks …

Location has been highlighted as playing a crucial role in the relationship between memory
for features and memory for bindings, with features purportedly bound to one another when …

We generalize the circular 2D diffusion model of Smith (Psychological Review, 123, 425–
451: 2016) to provide a new model of speeded decision-making in multielement visual …
