| summary | In this talk I will review recent research on different aspects of information-binding in working memory* in the context of Baddeley's (2000) concept of an 'episodic buffer'. One set of studies uses dual-task methodology to examine the role of attention in short-term memory for combinations of visual features such as color and shape. Another set of studies uses the same dual-task approach to study chunking based on linguistic knowledge in verbal short-term memory. Further studies explore the binding of serial order information in short-term memory for sequences of unfamiliar faces, making comparisons with memory for verbal sequences. Results are discussed in terms of the utility of distinguishing between an attention-demanding central binding mechanism (such as the episodic buffer) and automatic, domain-specific binding mechanisms.
