=== Object memory === <!-- [[Object memory]] redirects here. --> Object memory involves [[Cognitive process|processing]] features of an object or material such as [[Texture (visual arts)|texture]], color, size, and [[Orientation (geometry)|orientation]]. It is processed mainly in the [[List of regions in the human brain|ventral regions]] of the [[brain]]. A few studies have shown that on average most people can recall up to four items each with a set of four different [[Visual perception|visual]] qualities. It is a separate system from [[spatial memory]] and is not affected by [[Interference theory|interference]] from spatial tasks.<ref name="BaddeleyEysenck2014">{{cite book|author1=Alan Baddeley|author2=Michael W.
