How much of your visual working memory content do you utilize? We show that you consistently load up more than you end up using!
In our latest Cognition article (doi.org/10.1016/j.cognition.…) we explain why. See the next few tweets for the TL;DR

We have a few datasets which didn't warrant standalone publications, but shouldn't go to waste.
Here are 3 visual search datasets (4 exps, total N=151) in hopes that others find it useful osf.io/preprints/osf/kgpq4. Please do reach out for questions!

Saying bye to Leeds, will keep the #ICWM24 experience in my (working) memory for quite a bit! ;) Thanks all!

Very excited for this year's #VSS2024 @VSSMtg!
Check out our lab's posters and talks throughout the week @AttentionLabUU
Excited to present my Poster on Temporal dynamics in VWM #VSS2024. You can find me Monday morning at Banyan Breezeway. (visionsciences.org/presentat…)
Check the thread below for more amazing contributions form our lab @VSSMtg !

New paper @JCgntn:
VWM offloading depends on availability of external information doi.org/10.5334/joc.364
Any disruption to the constant availability of external info is a driver of increased VWM usage, but changes to predictability of availability have little further effect

Ja! Mijn nieuwe boek is er! In Beter leren kijken ervaar je hoe je met verschillende filters naar de wereld kunt kijken. Want door je eigen waarneming te sturen, zie je opeens specifieke details of juist grotere patronen die je anders zouden ontgaan.

In a dynamic world, items appear, disappear, and reappear within seconds. In our latest preprint we show: the reappearance of maintained items guides the prioritization of non-reappearing memory items.

How do encoding and internal prioritization shape the precision of visual working memory representations? Pupil size shows that external and internal attention are deployed as continuous resources, and jointly contribute to VWM precision.

How can you study each phase of visual working memory using pupillometry? In our new review, we outline how encoding, maintenance and prioritization are reflected in pupil size.

This Friday, @AndreSahakian and @ajhoogerbrugge will run demonstrations at @BetweterFest festival!
Make a 5-minute pitstop at our booth to test your memory (and challenge your friends)! 🧠

Highly recommended PhD position! You get to work in an awesome lab, on a cool project, in a great city!
Made the same decision almost 3 years ago, very glad I did. Feel free to ask if you've got any questions about the lab/position/etc.
Opening for two PhD positions in the Attentionlab at Utrecht University. Come work with us on my VICI project on individual differences in visual attention!

🚨Hi Tweeps, please allow me proudly present the CAP-lab website: cap-lab.net/
Where CAP stands for Consciousness, Attention, & Perception (and coincidentally refers to my favorite clothing attribute).
Please, have a look, and don't forget to follow my PhD students!
Andre Sahakian retweeted
Our lab has openings for two(!) fully-funded PhD positions at Utrecht University!
You will investigate visual attention, with a focus on individual differences (e.g. ASD, super-recognizers, local/global attention, etc.)
Apply before October 6th!

New paper in @ARVOJOV! 🧱📖
You're probably familiar with the struggle of assembling an IKEA cupboard or a LEGO Star Wars ship from its separate parts (why is it always the Scandinavians?!).
In this process, you often look at the instruction manual, sometimes redundantly! 🧵
I made a #jsPsych plugin for @p5xjs! This means you can combine the strength of p5.js for (programmatic) visualizations with that of jsPsych to easily build online experiments!

What determines how much we encode into visual working memory? Pupil size uncovers two factors: baseline arousal and the intensity of attention. Together with encoding duration, they drive how much and how precise material is encoded.
