The Cognition Lab @ University of Zurich is on Bluesky! Follow us for updates on new papers & preprints, conferences that lab members attend & other news around research on #workingmemory, #attention, and #longtermmemory.

Super excited to share that Ven Popov & me published a new release of the #bmm R package: venpopov.github.io/bmm/ We have added the Memory Measurement Model for categorical #workingmemory tasks to the package! Apart from that there are some minor fixes to already implemented models and functions.

Can removing info from working memory reduce interference or free up capacity? Our new study finds that removal boosts memory by freeing resources—not by reducing interference. chenyuli.bsky.social @gidon-frischkorn.bsky.social koberauer.bsky.social 🔗 www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

Next up in Poster Session III, November 22 from 6:00 - 7:30 PM, @chenyuli.bsky.social sky.social will tell you about the benefit of removing information from working memory. With @gidon-frischkorn.bsky.social on-frischkorn.bsky.social , @hannahdames.bsky.social hdames.bsky.social and Klaus Oberauer.

The Zurich Cognition Lab (Oberauer, Bartsch, and Frischkorn) is attending Psychonomics 2024 and you are in for A LOT of treats! If you are in New York, make sure to stop by our talks and posters and discuss with us (more details in the thread) #psynom24

Looks interesting: venpopov.com/posts/2024/i...

😎 My colleagues Gidon Frischkorn and Ven Popov have launched *bmm* their R-package on hierarchical Bayesian implementations of measurement models for to CRAN ! Please check out their Blog post: venpopov.com/posts/2024/i... #CogSci #workingmemory #CogPsych #rstats #PsychSciSky

🚨New paper🚨 I’m exited to share that our (@joschadutli.bsky.social, K. Oberauer, @leabartsch.bsky.social) work on the link between grouping of information in #workingmemory and the formation of chunks in #longtermmeory has just been published in Cognition! 🥳 www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

Come and join us, for lots of #workingmemory fun 🤩
