The Multi-Process View proposes that different processes can be used to detect event-based prospective memory cues depending in part on the specificity of the cue. According to this theory, attentional processes are not necessary to detect focal cues whereas detection of nonfocal cues requires some form of controlled attention. This notion was tested using a design in which high or low working memory capacity participant’s performance on a focal versus a nonfocal prospective memory task were compared. An interaction was found such that high and low working memory participants performed equally well on the focal task whereas the high working memory participants performed significantly better than the low working memory participants on the nonfocal task. Thus, controlled attention was only necessary for detecting event-based prospective memory cues in the nonfocal task. These results have implications for theories of prospective memory and the processes necessary for cue detection and the successful fulfillment of intentions.
