Attentional control in visual working memory : A cognitive neuroscience study

视觉注意和视觉工作记忆（VWM）是人类适应行为的重要功能。他们的相互作用进行了系统的研究，重点放在以下功能：注意力的选择，功能整合和更新的心理表征。在VWM中，我们可以进行特征尺寸的选择性维护，但位置起着特殊的作用。特征连接而不是独立特征被绑定到位置。脑功能成像数据显示，选择、整合和更新是通过不同脑区之间的网络活动来执行的。

Visual attention and visual working memory(VWM) are essential functions for our adaptive behavior. Their interaction was systematically investigated by focusing on the following functions ; attentional selection, feature integration, and updating of mental representations. We can perform selective maintenance of feature dimensions in VWM, but location plays special functions. Feature conjunctions, not independent features are bound to locations. Functional brain imaging data revealed that selection, integration, and updating are executed by network activity among various brain regions.
