Recent theoretical models propose that working memory is mediated by rapid transitions in 'activity-silent'
neural states (for example, short-term synaptic plasticity). According to the …

When people monitor a visual stream of rapidly presented stimuli for two targets (T1 and T2),
they often miss T2 if it falls into a time window of about half a second after T1 onset—the …

… In MET tasks, a regular grid (eg, 5 × 5) of dots or squares is presented across two successive
displays (eg, 12 dots each), with a single empty position remaining for the observer to find. …

… pause the inherent dynamics by falling into a stable attractor (eg, [1,2]). This solution has …
Finally, it is also possible to maintain stable information in a richer dynamical system (eg, [7])…

… In some of their experiments, the load on memory was considerably higher than that in the
present study (eg, up to six symbol characters), and yet, virtually no impact on the AB was …

Cognitive skills, such as processing speed, memory functioning, and the ability to divide
attention, are known to diminish with aging. The present study shows that, despite these …

It is unclear to what extent sensory processing areas are involved in the maintenance of
sensory information in working memory (WM). Previous studies have thus far relied on finding …

… that we do not mean to claim that activity observed in a particular cluster necessarily reflects
a generator source directly beneath, or even in the brain region with the same name (eg, …

Estimation of time depends heavily on both global and local statistical context. Durations that
are short relative to the global distribution are systematically overestimated; durations that …

… Given that some combinations of our experimental factors create rather trivial demands
on target processing proper (eg, performance is likely to be excellent if T1 and T2 are widely …
