Journal ArticleDOI
Is working memory training effective
TL;DR: There is a need to directly demonstrate that WM capacity increases in response to training, and it is argued that transfer of training to WM must be demonstrated using a wider variety of tasks, thus eliminating the possibility that results can be explained by task specific learning.
Journal ArticleDOI
No evidence of intelligence improvement after working memory training: A randomized, placebo-controlled study.
Thomas S. Redick,Zach Shipstead,Tyler L. Harrison,Kenny L. Hicks,David Fried,David Z. Hambrick,Michael J. Kane,Randall W. Engle +7 more
TL;DR: This study compared young adults who received 20 sessions of practice on an adaptive dual n-back program or an adaptive visual search program with a no-contact control group that received no practice, and found no positive transfer to any of the cognitive ability tests.
Journal ArticleDOI
Working Memory Training Does Not Improve Performance on Measures of Intelligence or Other Measures of "Far Transfer": Evidence From a Meta-Analytic Review.
TL;DR: It is concluded that working memory training programs appear to produce short-term, specific training effects that do not generalize to measures of “real-world” cognitive skills.
Journal ArticleDOI
Complex working memory span tasks and higher-order cognition: A latent-variable analysis of the relationship between processing and storage
TL;DR: The relations among processing time, processing accuracy, and storage accuracy from the complex span tasks were examined, in combination with their respective relationships with fluid intelligence, and a complicated pattern of unique and shared variance among the constructs is found.
Journal ArticleDOI
Measuring Working Memory Capacity With Automated Complex Span Tasks
Thomas S. Redick,James M. Broadway,Matt E. Meier,Princy S. Kuriakose,Nash Unsworth,Michael J. Kane,Randall W. Engle +6 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors used automated complex span tasks (Operation, Symmetry, and Reading Span) to measure the working memory capacity of young adults with a standardized procedure for adminis- tration and scoring.
