Overview

Manipulating working memory load affects serial dependence in visual tasks, suggesting intricate memory interactions.

Key Points

  • Increased working memory load enhances serial dependence, impacting visual perception and memory.
  • Manipulations during retention intervals showed that memory precision decreases when more stimuli are encoded.
  • Using Gabor patches, the study required participants to reproduce orientations after tasks with varying complexities.
  • Degraded memory precision, not solely stimulus noise, enhances biases towards previous stimuli in visual input.
