    Abstract

    Visual attention both guides and is guided by learning and memory systems. In this article, we use a multiple-memory systems framework to examine the inter- play between attention and memory that begins in early postnatal life. We review how attention and memory inter- act to support infant development with respect to percep- tual learning about objects and features, item-in-context spatial memory, and reinforcement and reward learning. We argue that the multiple-memory systems approach offers a useful organizational structure for research on interactions between attention and memory.
