..., 2004; Cowan, 1999; Engle et al., 1999; Unsworth & Engle, 2007). Comparatively little empirical work has investigated the role of domain-general skills in conceptual understanding however. Robinson and Dubé (2013) found that 8–10-year-old children with poorer inhibitory control were less likely to use a conceptually-based shortcut than children with good inhibitory control when presented with problems where such a strategy was possible....
