We found attentional suppression might be related to re-coding salient singleton locations in a inverted format to target locations

Rapid inversion of singleton distractor representations underlies learned attentional suppression

In visually complex and dynamically changing environments, humans often face the challenge of filtering out salient stimuli that are presently irrelevant to their tasks. Recent evidence suggests that ...

Excited to share my first fMRI paper in @pnas.org We found that suppressing the encoding of one event can strengthen the neural representation of the next in CA1, and bias retrieval-related neural restatement away from suppressed information. www.pnas.org/doi/10.1073/...

Maintenance suppression enhances subsequent associative learning | PNAS

Removing irrelevant information from working memory (WM) can free cognitive resources and reduce interference with current task goals. Beyond these...

Excited to share our work @jarrod on reconciling divergent distraction effects in visual working memory. osf.io/preprints/psya…. This project began as a learning experience in modeling memory errors during my first year at UT, and I’m thrilled to see it will be out @psychscience.bsky.social
