Working memory in developing and applying mental models from spatial descriptions (2008, background): “…notion that with route descriptions, additional visuospatial resources may be involved in monitoring and updating information relative to a principle reference vector (i.e., Shelton & McNamara, 2004), and forming rich mental imagery (Brunyé & Taylor, 2007; Farmer et al., 1986; Miyake et al., 2001).”
Working memory and intelligence: the same or different constructs? (2005, result): “The meta-analysis of STM and intellectual abilities we conducted provides an overall correlation between STM andintellectual abilities that is not substantially different from that of the partially overlapping set of correlations reported by Mukunda and Hall (1992). They reported a weighted average ”
Working memory and language learning: A review (2017, background): “In fact, visuospatial short-term and working memory have not always been distinguished in large studies using factor analysis (Archibald, 2013; Miyake et al., 2001).”
Time and cognitive load in working memory. (2007, background): “For example, it is well known that words are better and faster retrieved as their frequency increases (Monsell, 1991). The retrieval of number facts is faster when the problems involve small rather than large operands (Ashcraft & Battaglia, 1978; Siegler & Shrager, 1984; Zbrodoff & Logan, 2005). Goa”
Executive Attention, Working Memory Capacity, and a Two-Factor Theory of Cognitive Control. (2003, background): “We find this to be an attractive view, and one that is consistent with the spatial WMC/STM findings of Miyake et al. (2001) .”
Using confirmatory factor analysis to understand executive control in preschool children: I. Latent structure. (2008, positive): “Our approach was modeled after that of Miyake and his colleagues (Friedman & Miyake, 2001; Miyake et al., 2000, 2001).”
A working memory, not bilingual advantage, in controlled attention (2010, background): “2001 ; Shah and Miyake 1996 ); that is, children with better visual WM abilities also excelled at the Simon Task which is a visual test of CA.”
Concurrent and longitudinal neuropsychological contributors to written language expression in first and second grade students (2011, background): “…the construct of executive functions given its regulatory nature (Barkley, Murphy, & Fischer, 2008; Funahashi, Bruce, & Goldman-Rakic, 1989); however, given its importance to the writing process, it is important to measure working memory and executive functioning separately (Miyake et al., 2001).”
