Jiang, Yuhong; Song, Joo-Hyun – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Perception and Performance, 2005
Humans conduct visual search faster when the same display is presented for a 2nd time, showing implicit learning of repeated displays. This study examines whether learning of a spatial layout transfers to other layouts that are occupied by items of new shapes or colors. The authors show that spatial context learning is sometimes contingent on item…

Olson, Ingrid R.; Jiang, Yuhong; Moore, Katherine Sledge – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Human Perception and Performance, 2005
The ability to remember visual stimuli over a short delay period is limited by the small capacity of visual working memory (VWM). Here the authors investigate the role of learning in enhancing VWM. Participants saw 2 spatial arrays separated by a 1-s interval. The 2 arrays were identical except for 1 location. Participants had to detect the…
