Excited to share our new paper on how distraction affects memory retrieval.
Using a continuous report paradigm, we show that distraction reduces whether memories are accessed but not how precisely they are represented.

New paper out in JEP:General, led by uber-productive grad student Ricardo Morales Torres: We use behavior and RNNs to show that object semantics protect visual working memory against visual interference but increase susceptibility to semantic interference

New review/theory paper out in PBR with Julie Bugg, Chris Nuno, and Changrun Huang. We muse about the "puzzle of profitless pre-cues" - why is it so hard to get people to engage proactive control from trial-to-trial? We hope it stimulates more research!

New paper from the lab now out online. Changrun Huang asked whether people use informative pre-cues to up-regulate cognitive control in the spatial Stroop task. Surprisingly, they do not, and we rule out some possible reasons for this:
