“The Retrocue Effect, a cognitive psychology theory, suggests that an individual's visual working memory is enhanced when their attention is directed toward prior information, even after a delay or distraction (Souza and Oberauer, 2016).”

“The retro-cue paradigm is in many regards similar to the classical Posner cueing paradigm (Posner, 1980) used to investigate the orienting of attention in the perceptual domain.”

“…seconds into the retention interval can guide attention to one item and thereby improve memory performance when that item is tested – often at the expense of performance when another item is tested (Griffin & Nobre, 2003; Landman, Spekreijse, & Lamme, 2003; for a review see Souza & Oberauer, 2016).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
