What a cool workshop! OPAM team crushing it with their workshop series right now

Saturday evening at #psynom25, I’m presenting research I did with @alexatompary.bsky.social on whether items bound to a source context change memory for the visual details of the context itself.

And there will be pretty good (& not so good) participant drawings!

Come check them out at Poster 93

Spatial attention and working memory are popularly thought to be tightly coupled. Yet, distinct neural activity tracks attentional breadth and WM load.

In a new paper @jocn.bsky.social, we show that pupil size independently tracks breadth and load.
