Abstract
Running span is generally considered a working memory updating task, yet the mechanisms underlying task execution remain unspecified. We employ a novel paradigm to investigate the time-course of cognitive demand posited to indicate an updating process (Experiment 1) and the impact of varying the rate of stimulus presentation (Experiment 2).
