This is rarely how memory is used in the real world: we are almost always able to resample information by making an action just-in-time (eye or head movements) or preemptively (cognitive offloading). Deciding how often to resample versus how much to store in memory depends on the costs of each option. In five preregistered experiments with 4-8-year-old children using a naturalistic and gamified task (N = 298), I will show that the cost-based balancing of sampling versus remembering emerges around 5 years of age, and follows a similar (but not identical) pattern as in adults. These results demonstrate how attention and visual working memory interact in naturalistic goal-driven behavior. Date: Wednesday, December 3rd, 2025 Time: 4 pm (to 5:30 pm) CET Venue: D002-Tiered* (QS Vienna) and Zoom (meeting ID: 969 2496 5784<https://ceu-edu.zoom.us/j/96924965784?pwd=c2duZ0dDMFdEMUthK2Mwa2wzMllEUT09>, passcode: 471712) Chair: Agnes Kovacs *Anyone not affiliated with CEU wishing to attend in-person in Vienna must RSVP here<https://forms.cloud.microsoft/pages/responsepage.aspx?id=E1nE2VN24kuSC72wOGOBhAH3qG-CM_1AneZBqb5K0GdUN0VKTUw5OEs0RlJGVlBISzAxTDJNTklDNi4u&route=shorturl> to get access to the lecture hall.
