Open AccessWorking memory representations in visual cortex mediate distraction effects
Although the contents of working memory can be decoded from visual cortex activity, these representations may play a limited role if they are not robust to distraction. We used model-based fMRI to estimate the...

Open AccessStrategic allocation of working memory resource
Visual working memory (VWM), the brief retention of past visual information, supports a range of cognitive functions. One of the defining, and largely studied, characteristics of VWM is how resource-limited it...

Open AccessDistinct contributions by frontal and parietal cortices support working memory
Although subregions of frontal and parietal cortex both contribute and coordinate to support working memory (WM) functions, their distinct contributions remain elusive. Here, we demonstrate that perturbations ...

Secondary adaptation of memory-guided saccades
Adaptation of saccade gains in response to errors keeps vision and action co-registered in the absence of awareness or effort. Timing is key, as the visual error must be available shortly after the saccade is ...

Persistent neural activity in the human frontal cortex when maintaining space that is off the map
Activity in the frontal eye fields (FEF) is important for visuospatial processing and is thought to code information in retinal coordinates. This fMRI study finds FEF activity even for auditory locations behin...

The effects of prefrontal lesions on working memory performance and theory
The effects of experimental lesions of the monkey prefrontal cortex have played a predominant role in current conceptualizations of the functional organization of the lateral prefrontal cortex, especially with...

Saccadic disinhibition in schizophrenia patients and their first-degree biological relatives
Several studies have reported that patients with schizophrenia and their relatives perform poorly on antisaccade tasks and have suggested that this deficit represents saccadic disinhibition. If this propositi...

Behavioral and neurophysiological correlates of episodic coding, proactive interference, and list length effects in a running span verbal working memory task
Updating refers to (1) discarding items from, (2) repositioning items in, and (3) adding items to a running working memory span. Our behavioral and fMRI experiments varied three factors: trial length, proactiv...
