Unsworth, Nash – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2016
The relation between working memory capacity (WMC) and recall from long-term memory (LTM) was examined in the current study. Participants performed multiple measures of delayed free recall varying in presentation duration and self-reported their strategy usage after each task. Participants also performed multiple measures of WMC. The results…

Unsworth, Nash; Brewer, Gene A.; Spillers, Gregory J. – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2013
Targeting information in long-term memory is an important cognitive ability, but one that is not well understood. In this study, 4 experiments were conducted to examine the influence of proactive and retroactive interference on memory targeting. Participants were given either 1 or 2 lists and asked to recall List 1, List 2, or in some cases both…

Umemoto, Akina; Scolari, Miranda; Vogel, Edward K.; Awh, Edward – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Perception and Performance, 2010
Observers can voluntarily select which items are encoded into working memory, and the efficiency of this process strongly predicts memory capacity. Nevertheless, the present work suggests that voluntary intentions do not exclusively determine what is encoded into this online workspace. Observers indicated whether any items from a briefly stored…
