Interactions between items in working memory. (a) Effects of spatial context. It is easier to detect a change to an item when the spatial context is the same in the original display and the test display than when the spatial context is altered, even if the item that may have changed is cued (with a black box). Displays adapted from the stimuli of Jiang, Olson & Chun (2000). (b) Effects of feature context on working memory. It is easer to detect a change to an item when the new color is outside the range of colors present in the original display, even for a change of equal magnitude.
