How does the visual system track moving objects while remembering the color of those objects? My latest research article (co-first with Piotr @styrkowiec.bsky.social) exploring this question using EEG is out in JoCN! @jocn.bsky.social #workingmemory #cognition #cogneuro #cogsci #neuro
Item-based Parsing of Dynamic Scenes in a Combined Attentional Tracking and Working Memory Task
Abstract. Human visual processing is limited—we can only track a few moving objects at a time and store a few items in visual working memory (WM). A shared mechanism that may underlie these performanc...

Make sure to stop at Ceren Arslan‘s (@scannedfruits.bsky.social) poster at #ICON2025 today at 3:30! She‘s presenting some of our recent EEG work on audiovisual object storage in #WorkingMemory! 👇
Tomorrow afternoon at #icon2025 I will present a poster on feature extraction costs in working memory in an audiovisual context using behavioral measures and EEG based decoding analysis. I will be at the main hall, 1st floor (P2.55). I’d be happy to discuss our results further with you.

Very excited to announce my first paper is out in @currentbiology.bsky.social! Using EEG, we identify an item-based measure of storage in working memory that generalizes across auditory and visual items.

Experimentology is out today!!! A group of us wrote a free online textbook for experimental methods, available at experimentology.io - the idea was to integrate open science into all aspects of the experimental workflow from planning to design, analysis, and writing.

I've started to create a Google doc to compile & share cog psych teaching resources, organized by topics (e.g., attention, memory, language) & resource types.

This week, I ask you to share any in-class demos you'd like to give. Please reply to this post or tag me in a separate post. Thanks!
If you teach cognitive psychology or related topics & are willing to share your favorite teaching resources (e.g., demos, videos), please reply to/quote this post, tag me in a new post, or send me email. I'll compile them, share the list, & keep updating it this summer. Let's inspire each other!
I teach an undergrad cognitive psychology class. I've been thinking about assembling useful teaching resources (demos, videos, etc.) from other cogpsy instructors & sharing them in a single place. If there's enough interest here, I'll make a separate post & ask you to share your favorite materials.
