Visuospatial working memory: insights from fMRI studies on mental imagery and attention
Using fMRI we aim to dissociate within the neuronal network of visuospatial working memory potential subdivisions between (1) a visual versus a spatial component, and (2) the maintenance versus the manipulation of information. In addition this neuronal network will be compared to the neuronal correlates of attention shifts, whether or not accompanied by eye movements.
