Effects of working memory load on visual selective attention: Behavioral and electrophysiological evidence
Working memory and attention interact in a way that enables us to focus on relevant items and maintain current goals. The influence of working memory on attention has been noted in several studies using dual task designs. Multitasking increases the demands on working memory and reduces the amount o...
