Abstract
► How does attention improve the encoding of items into long-term memory? ► Facilitation and reorienting are two attentional processes that operate at encoding. ► Remembered items elicit more activity in areas where attention facilitates processing. ► Forgotten items elicit more activity in areas that help reorient spatial attention. ► Memory formation benefits from suppression of the ventral attention network.
