Specific contributions of frontal and parietal regions to visuospatial encoding and attention remain controversial. This study used fMRI to examine associative encoding of sequentially-presented spatial cues and object stimuli. The cue preceded the centrally-displayed object by a jittered-delay-interval to better isolate attempt and success in episodically integrating pure location information with separately presented objects. Superior parietal response was modulated by attempted location binding, while superior/middle frontal response was predictive of successful location binding.
► Frontoparietal involvement in sequential object-location associative encoding. ► Superior parietal modulated by attempted visuospatial binding regardless of success. ► Medial/middle frontal response predictive of successful visuospatial binding. ► Dissociated parietal and frontal engagement in spatial binding attempt and success.
