The Classroom as a Developmental Context for Cognitive Development: A Meta-Analysis on the Importance of Teacher–Student Interactions for Children’s Executive Functions (2018, background): “…memory this provides a caveat, as this core EF has been linked to children’s learning-related behavior in the classroom (Fitzpatrick & Pagani, 2012; Gathercole et al., 2007) and has most consistently been related to children’s academic functioning (Cragg & Gilmore, 2014; Vandenbroucke,…”
Is working memory training effective? (2012, background): “Interestingly, this improvement was not only demonstrated with traditional span tasks but also in a task that required children to repeat complex sets of instructions (e.g., Gathercole et al., 2008).”
Strengthening of alpha synchronization is a neural correlate of cognitive transfer (2024, background): “Behavioral studies show that cognitive training can transfer to other cognitive tasks (Klingberg et al. 2005; Gathercole et al. 2008; Jaeggi et al. 2008; Schmiedek et al. 2010; Judd and Klingberg 2021), but that the training gains can also be tasks specific (Gathercole et al. 2019).”
