Schematic representations of the six spatial span tasks. The three left panels show the simple working memory tasks requiring storage of the locations of lines, grid positions, and dot positions. The three right panels show the corresponding complex working memory tasks requiring storage of locations of lines, grid positions, and dot positions, but also require processing irrelevant visuospatial information presented simultaneously with the presentations of each primary memory item.
