Abstract
When deciding which kiwi fruit or pear needs eating first or which drink has the right temperature to be consumed on a warm day, we are likely to explore and compare hardness or temperature using our hands. The process that enables us to keep the relevant information active for task performance over a short period of time is called ‘working memory’ (WM) [1]. WM allows us to hold stimulus characteristics on-line to guide behaviour in the absence of external cues or prompts [2]. Without active WM, initial oercepts decay quickly with different time constants for different input modalities (Box 1).

This process is experimental and the keywords may be updated as the learning algorithm improves.
