People have large differences in their visual attentional and working memory (WM) abilities. Both attention and WM are thought to comprise of representation of sensory information and its attentional / executive control. A common finding is that people’s ability to attend to or to memorize several items concurrently ranges from 2 to 4 items. How attention and working memory functions arise from distributed brain activity and what mechanisms limit the attentional and working memory capacity are largely unknown. In this thesis, concurrent magnetoencephalography and electroencephalography (MEG and EEG) recordings of whole brain activity combined with source modeling were used to study the role of rhythmic cortical activity in attention and...
