Re: Title: When do spatial and visual working memory interact? (2010-11) --> position v. other visual n-back settings!

Addendum in order to CMA:

1) _infer_ plastic changes... ;P

2) "I just find it bloody interesting how different parts of the brain
interact with one another (i.e. one part sees "red", the other sees
"phallic shape", so they exchange notes and produce "red phallic
shape". Anyway.)"

3) If we're stacking all these tasks up at once on TNB or QNB, we
might just be training Gs, inspection time or reaction speed rather
than anything novel.

4) -Oook: "The color memory task did not interfere with the location
memory task, but the shape memory task and the binding memory task did
interfere with the location memory task" If we're training inhibition,
QNB>TNB. Seems like a no-brainer but it's for slightly different
reasons beyond 'more data', as TNB with shapes instead of colors would
have the same effect.

I'll leave the last one as is.
