Impulse and Self-Control From a Dual-Systems Perspective (2009, background): “Without support from working memory functions, reflective operations break down, whereas impulsive processes are left unaffected (Barrett et al., 2004; Strack & Deutsch, 2004).”
The magical number two, plus or minus: Dual-process theory as a theory of cognitive kinds (2009, methodology): “supported by empirical research (Baddeley, 2007; Barrett et al., 2004 ).”
Automatic-heuristic and executive-analytic processing during reasoning: Chronometric and dual-task considerations. (2006, background): “The present study focuses on one of the framework’s most fundamental processing assumptions: The differential involvement of executive, working memory resources in heuristic and analytic processing (e.g., Evans, 2002, 2003; Evans & Over, 1996; Feldman Barrett, Tugade, & Engle, 2004; Kokis, Macpher”
Trait and State Differences in Working Memory Capacity (2010, methodology): “…genera l as show n by similar relationships holding across do mai ns and for simple and complex tasks (Co nway , Cowan, Bu nting, Therriault, & Minkoff, 2002 ; Co nway & Engle, 1996; Engle, Kane, & Tuholski, 1999; Engle, Tuholski, et al., 1999; Fe ldman Barrett et al., 2004; Kane et aI., 2004).”
Working memory span tasks: A methodological review and user’s guide (2005, background): “Barrett et al. (2004) reviewed a large literature connecting individual differences on WM span measures with dual-process theories of mind and”
Reflection as a strategy to enhance task performance after feedback (2009, background): “It is one of the main assumptions of dual-process models that the ‘second’ mode of information processing is more demanding of cognitive capacity and relies heavily on working memory capacity ( Barrett, Tugade, & Engle, 2004 ).”
When and why do implicit measures predict behaviour? Empirical evidence for the moderating role of opportunity, motivation, and process reliance (2008, background): “In a second study an SC-IAT (relating to candy) predicted candy consumption in a taste-and-rate task, but only for participants low in WMC. Conversely, the motivation to forgo candy that was assessed directly with a questionnaire predicted consumption for participants high in WMC, but not for those ”
Impulsive versus reflective influences on health behavior: a theoretical framework and empirical review (2008, background): “Individuals high in working memory capacity are assumed to be more successful in enacting goal-directed processing and in shielding their goals from interference, such as the kind that stems from impulsive processing (Barrett et al., 2004).”
Three Very Simple Games and What It Takes to Solve Them (2009, positive): “Working memory tests proxy general cognitive abilities in that they robustly predict general “fluid intelligence” and performance in a broad range of cognitive tasks requiring controlled (as opposed to automated) information processing (e.g., Feldman-Barrett et al., 2004; Kane et al., 2004).”
