• Working Memory and Children’s Mathematical Skills: Implications for mathematical development and mathematics curricula (2006, background): “This has implications for educational practice as it supports the suggestion that WM assessments may be useful predictors of later academic achievement (eg, Gathercole & Pickering, 2000b ) and that screening for impaired WM in young children may help to identify those at risk of maths difficulties ”
• Working memory skills and educational attainment: evidence from national curriculum assessments at 7 and 14 years of age (2004, background): “Children with learning difficulties sufficiently severe to be classified by their schools as having special educational needs also perform extremely poorly on the same working memory measures ( Gathercole & Pickering, 2001 ).”
• Improving children's working memory and classroom performance (2010, methodology): “Alloway, Gathercole, Adams, & Willis, 2005 ; Gathercole & Pickering, 2001 ), may have more difficulty in employing strategies during demanding tasks.”
