Mean absolute error (MAE) and mixture model metrics in EHC and AD. Performance across the five different conditions: Set Size 2 (SS2), Filtering at Encoding (FE), Filtering at Maintenance (FM), Set Size three at Encoding (SS3E), Set Size three at Maintenance (SS3M). The two groups are shown as EHC in coral red, AD in green. 3 A: On the Y-axis MAE in degrees. Note in particular the differential effect of Filtering at Maintenance (FM) compared to Filtering at Encoding (FE) within the AD group compared to within the EHC group. Further, in AD, FM performance (when a to-be-ignored distractor was presented during maintenance) was equivalent to that Set Size three at Maintenance (SS3M, when the new item had to be retained). 3B: a | Precision as concentration parameter κ. b | Target probability. c | Misbinding probability. d | Guessing probability.
