• Is working memory training effective? (2012, unknown): “It is also worth noting that, for adults, simple span performance reflects STM, regardless of whether forward or backward recall is required (Engle et al., 1999; St. Clair-Thompson, 2010).”
• Does Working Memory Training Transfer? A Meta-Analysis Including Training Conditions as Moderators (2015, unknown): “The findings of the study by St Clair-Thompson (2010) suggested that backward digit span is a measure of (verbal) WM for children and (verbal) STM for adults, which is in line with other research (e.g., Colom, Abad, Rebollo, & Chun Shih, 2005; St Clair-Thompson & Allen, 2013).”
