What’s the best way to characterize the relationship between working memory and achievement?: An initial examination of competing theories. (2020, background): “…Barnes et al., 2018; van der Maas, Kan, & Borsboom, 2014), it is possible that WM neither acts as a filter nor indexes the ability to retrieve items from LTM but, rather, WM and math are correlated because they share some underlying processes or skills (Kovacs & Conway, 2016; Sternberg, 2016).”
A distributed brain network predicts general intelligence from resting-state human neuroimaging data (2018, background): “The empirical observation of the positive manifold is well-established [18] (it is sometimes referred to as the most replicated result in all of psychology [19]).”
Task‐specific topology of brain networks supporting working memory and inhibition (2024, background): “However, we propose that a combination of common and distinct processes is key to understanding individual differences in cognitive abilities.”
