Resumo: This study investigated the incidental integration of visual and spatial information in working memory using a sequence recognition task in which participants had to memorize a sequence of stimuli according to a predetermined relevant dimension and ignore changes in an irrelevant dimension. It was supposed that, if performance was affected by a change in the irrelevant dimension, it could be inferred that object and spatial position were automatically integrated. This assumption was tested in two experimental conditions in which the dimensions relevant to the recognition task were visual appearance (geometric figures and letters in different graphics fonts), or the spatial location of each stimulus. The irrelevant dimensions were, respectively, the spatial location and visual appearance of the stimuli. The results showed that a change in the irrelevant dimension has a significant effect on recognition of sequences, suggesting that information about object and position are incidentally integrated.

Se consideró que si el rendimiento fuera afectado por un cambio en la dimensión irrelevante, se podría inferir que el objeto y la posición espacial se integran de forma automática. Esta hipótesis fue probada en dos condiciones experimentales en las que la dimensión relevante para la tarea de reconocimiento podía ser el aspecto visual (figuras geométricas y letras en diferentes fuentes gráficas) o la ubicación espacial de cada estímulo. Las dimensiones irrelevantes fueron, respectivamente, la ubicación espacial y el aspecto visual. Los resultados mostraron que un cambio en la dimensión irrelevante tiene un efecto significativo en el reconocimiento de las secuencias, lo que sugiere que el aspecto visual y la ubicación espacial se integran incidentalmente.Neste estudo investigou-se a integração incidental da informação visual e espacial na memória de trabalho utilizando uma tarefa de reconhecimento de sequências na qual os participantes deveriam memorizar uma sequência de estímulos em função de uma dimensão relevante predeterminada, e ignorar mudanças na dimensão irrelevante. Considerou-se que, se o desempenho na tarefa de reconhecimento fosse prejudicado por uma mudança na dimensão irrelevante, se poderia inferir que objeto e posição espacial foram integrados de forma automática. Esta suposição foi testada em duas condições experimentais em que as dimensões relevantes para a tarefa de reconhecimento eram a aparência visual (figuras geométricas e letras em fontes gráficas diferentes), ou a localização espacial de cada estímulo. As dimensões irrelevantes eram, respectivamente, a localização espacial e a aparência visual. Os resultados mostraram que uma mudança na dimensão irrelevante tem um efeito significativo sobre o reconhecimento das sequências, sugerindo que as informações sobre objeto e posição são integradas de forma incidental.
