New paper with NicoleAnayaSosa and @violastoermer.bsky.social now out in Perception! "Testing location invariance of the flashed face distortion effect" journals.sagepub.com/eprint/WVUFW...
Testing location invariance of the flashed face distortion effect - Yong Hoon Chung, Nicole C. Anaya Sosa, Viola S. Störmer, 2025
Spatially aligned faces presented in a continuous stream in the periphery appear distorted and grotesque. This flashed face distortion effect (“FFDE”) was first...

Today afternoon I’ll be presenting my poster at #vss2025 titled “Perceptual and conceptual contributions of the real-world object benefit in visual working memory: Is looking like an object good enough to enhance memory?” See you at Pavillion!

New paper with Kaira Shlipak and @violastoermer.bsky.social now out in Journal of Memory and Language! “Fluid intelligence correlates with working memory capacity for both real-world objects and simple-feature stimuli” www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...
Fluid intelligence correlates with working memory capacity for both real-world objects and simple-feature stimuli
Previous research has shown that individual differences in visual working memory performance strongly correlate with measures of fluid intelligence. I…

The deadline is coming up to present at the pre-data poster session at #VSS. It's the perfect venue for those who want to have a conversation about an idea or a topic (especially early-career researchers who may not have something in-the-works!). #visionscience www.visionsciences.org/2025-pre-dat...

New Preprint with @timbrady.bsky.social and @violastoermer.bsky.social : www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1... Here we show increased neural delay activity associated with remembering features as part of real-world objects. 1/
Real-world objects scaffold visual working memory for features: Increased neural delay activity when colors are remembered as part of meaningful objects
Visual working memory is a core cognitive function that allows active storage of task-relevant visual information. While previous studies have postulated that the capacity of this system is fixed with...

Tomorrow morning I’ll be presenting my poster at CNS @cogneuronews.bsky.social B10: “Increased neural delay activity for simple features when they are remembered as part of real-world objects” Come chat with me about how semantic associations may improve feature working memory! #CNS2025

Presenting my poster @opam.bsky.social today 11:30am: “Can you remember them better because they are familiar or because they look real? Testing the contribution of object-ness in visual working memory with novel objects” See you all there!
