Integrating sequential arrays in visual short-term memoryYuhong Jiang
Department of Psychology, Harvard University, Cambridge, MA 02138, USA
Exp Psychol 52:39-46. 2005..In this study, we show that success in this task can be better accounted for by a convert-and-compare process than by an integration process. We conclude that VSTM only supports limited integration across sequential arrays...
Implicit learning of ignored visual contextYuhong Jiang
Department of Psychology, Harvard University, 33 Kirkland Street, Cambridge, MA 02138, USA
Psychon Bull Rev 12:100-6. 2005..We conclude that the expression of visual implicit learning depends on attention but that latent learning of repeated information does not...
High-capacity spatial contextual memoryYuhong Jiang
Department of Psychology, Harvard University, Cambridge, Massachusetts 02138, USA
Psychon Bull Rev 12:524-9. 2005..We conclude that the visual system has a high capacity for learning and retaining repeated spatial context, an ability that may compensate for our severe limitations in visual attention and working memory...
Visual short-term memory for two sequential arrays: one integrated representation or two separate representations?Yuhong Jiang
Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Cambridge, Massachusetts, USA
Psychon Bull Rev 11:495-500. 2004..This effect was observed only at an ISI of 500 msec or longer. We propose that as Array 1 is better consolidated, its representation becomes more separated from that of Array 2...
Perceptual grouping in change detectionYuhong Jiang
Department of Psychology, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Cambridge, Massachusetts 02138, USA
Percept Psychophys 66:446-53. 2004..Our results suggest that some relational grouping cues are represented in change detection even when they are task irrelevant...
Resolving dual-task interference: an fMRI studyYuhong Jiang
Department of Psychology, Harvard University, Cambridge, MA 02138, USA
Neuroimage 22:748-54. 2004..We conclude that the right lateral frontal regions are important for resolving dual-task interference at the perceptual attention stage...
Functional magnetic resonance imaging provides new constraints on theories of the psychological refractory periodYuhong Jiang
Department of Brain and Cognitive Sciences, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Cambridge, MA, USA
Psychol Sci 15:390-6. 2004..These data suggest that passive queuing, rather than active monitoring, occurs during the PRP...
Time window from visual images to visual short-term memory: consolidation or integration?Yuhong Jiang
Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Cambridge, MA, USA
Exp Psychol 51:45-51. 2004..We suggest that a temporal window is required for consolidation of the first array, which is vulnerable to disruption by subsequent images that also need to be memorized...
What kind of memory supports visual marking?Yuhong Jiang
Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Department of Brain and Cognitive Sciences, MA 02138, USA
J Exp Psychol Hum Percept Perform 30:79-91. 2004....
Common neural mechanisms for response selection and perceptual processingYuhong Jiang
MIT, USA
J Cogn Neurosci 15:1095-110. 2003..Our data argue against an account of this common activation in terms of spatial processing or general task difficulty. Thus, PD may recruit the same central processes that are engaged by RS...
Common neural substrates for response selection across modalities and mapping paradigmsYuhong Jiang
Massachusetts Institute of Technology, USA
J Cogn Neurosci 15:1080-94. 2003....
Hyperspecificity in visual implicit learning: learning of spatial layout is contingent on item identityYuhong Jiang
Department of Psychology, Harvard University, Cambridge, MA 02138, USA
J Exp Psychol Hum Percept Perform 31:1439-48. 2005..Similar results held when items changed shapes after training. The authors conclude that implicit visual learning is sensitive to trial context and that spatial context learning can be identity contingent...
Spatial context learning in visual search and change detectionYuhong Jiang
Department of Psychology, Harvard University, 33 Kirkland Street, WJH 820, Cambridge, MA 02138, USA
Percept Psychophys 67:1128-39. 2005..We suggest that although spatial context learning occurs in multiple tasks, the content of learning is, in part, task specific...
Visual marking: selective attention to asynchronous temporal groupsYuhong Jiang
Department of Psychology, Yale University, New Haven, Connecticut, USA
J Exp Psychol Hum Percept Perform 28:717-30. 2002..Visual marking is based on temporal asynchrony between new and old items, which allows segregation of these items into 2 temporal groups. Attention is then selectively applied to 1 group...
Connecting the past with the present: how do humans match an incoming visual display with visual memory?Joo Hyun Song
Department of Psychology, Harvard University, Cambridge, MA, USA
J Vis 5:322-30. 2005..We suggest that the retrieval of a well-established visual memory can proceed even if an incoming display partly matches the previous memory...
Implicit, long-term spatial contextual memoryMarvin M Chun
Department of Psychology, Vision Research Center, Nashville, Tennessee 37203, USA
J Exp Psychol Learn Mem Cogn 29:224-34. 2003..The results have implications for understanding the neural substrate of spatial contextual learning, which may depend on an intact medial temporal lobe system that includes the hippocampus (Mi. M. Chun & E. A. Phelps, 1999)...
Setting up the target template in visual searchTimothy J Vickery
Department of Psychology, Harvard University, Cambridge, MA, USA
J Vis 5:81-92. 2005..We conclude that the template set-up process uses detailed visual information, rather than schematic or semantic information, to find the target...
Visual short-term memory for sequential arraysArjun Kumar
Harvard University, Cambridge, Massachusetts, USA
Mem Cognit 33:488-98. 2005..We suggest that multiple displays compete for retention in VSTM and that separating information into two temporally discrete groups does not enhance the overall capacity of VSTM...
What is learned in spatial contextual cuing--configuration or individual locations?Yuhong Jiang
Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Cambridge, Massachusetts, USA
Percept Psychophys 66:454-63. 2004..Thus, both individual target-distractor associations and configural associations are learned in contextual cuing...
Visual working memory for simple and complex features: an fMRI studyJoo Hyun Song
Department of Psychology, Harvard University, 33 Kirkland Street, WJH 820, Cambridge, MA 02138, USA
Neuroimage 30:963-72. 2006..The occipitotemporal regions were sensitive to featural differences, but not to VWM load manipulation. We propose that the response properties of these regions can jointly account for several findings in human VWM behavior...
Visual working memory for briefly presented scenesKristine Liu
Department of Psychology, Wellesley College, Wellesley, MA, USA
J Vis 5:650-8. 2005..We suggest that adequate encoding of a scene into VWM requires a long duration, and that visual details can accumulate in memory provided that the viewing duration is sufficiently long...
Visual marking: dissociating effects of new and old set sizeYuhong Jiang
Department of Psychology, Yale University, USA
J Exp Psychol Learn Mem Cogn 28:293-302. 2002..Experiment 3 shows that this reduction may be restricted to paradigms that use temporal segregation cues. Studies should vary old and new set size orthogonally to avoid missing a visual marking effect where one may be present...
Visual working memory for simple and complex visual stimuliHing Yee Eng
Harvard University, Cambridge, Massachusetts, USA
Psychon Bull Rev 12:1127-33. 2005..We conclude that when encoding limitations are minimized, perceptual complexity affects, but does not determine, VWM capacity...

Department of Psychology, Hiroshima University, Higashi Hiroshima, Japan
J Exp Psychol Hum Percept Perform 31:703-12. 2005..The authors conclude that the visual system is capable of retaining spatial contextual memory established earlier to facilitate perception...
Associative learning improves visual working memory performanceIngrid R Olson
Center for Cognitive Neuroscience, University of Pennsylvania, 3720 Walnut Street, Philadelphia, PA 19104, USA
J Exp Psychol Hum Percept Perform 31:889-900. 2005..The authors suggest that a major role of learning in VWM is to mediate which information gets retained, rather than to directly increase VWM capacity...
Neural mechanisms for response selection: representation specific or modality independent?Eric H Schumacher
University of California, Berkeley, USA
J Cogn Neurosci 15:1077-9. 2003
Is visual short-term memory object based? Rejection of the "strong-object" hypothesisIngrid R Olson
Yale University, New Haven, Connecticut, USA
Percept Psychophys 64:1055-67. 2002..Our results support a weak-object hypothesis of VSTM capacity that suggests that VSTM is limited by both the number of objects and the feature composition of those objects...
Visual short-term memory is not improved by trainingIngrid R Olson
Center for Cognitive Neuroscience, University of Pennsylvania, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania 19104 6241, USA
Mem Cognit 32:1326-32. 2004..We suggest that the fidelity of information held by VLTM is inferior to that of information held by VSTM and thus provides no additional benefit over what is extracted on the fly by VSTM...
