Funded Activity Summary

Working Memory: The Binding of Spatial and Nonspatial Features in the Retention of Visual and Auditory Information. By advancing the understanding of how integrated representations are retained in memory for the features of visual objects and the features of sounds, the research will provide new theoretical insights as well as new methods for investigating several forms of psychopathology. Deficits in feature binding have been argued to be implicated in autism, in the auditory hallucinations experienced by individuals with schizophrenia, and in memory decline with advancing age. By investigating these deficits using insights from the proposed study, researchers may be able to develop ways to ameliorate the adverse effects of the deficits.
