“…Accordingly, the coupling of gamma and theta phase has been explored as a neuronal marker of VWM maintenance (Sauseng, Klimesch, et al ., ), and this idea was used to explain capacity limits and the (purported) slot‐like fashion of VWM storage: VWM capacity is limited by the number of complete gamma waves that can be nested within a theta cycle of a given length. Alternatively, according to a more recent proposal, items are coded as gamma bursts (i.e., multiple cycles; Herman, Lundqvist, & Lansner, ; Van Vugt, Chakravarthi, & Lachaux, ) and only one item is coded per theta period, with different items being refreshed in consecutive theta cycles. During a theta cycle, gamma amplitude first increases and then decreases, yielding a coupling of gamma amplitude to theta phase.…”
