Neural Coding of Cognitive Control: The Representational Similarity Analysis Approach. (2020, background): “Some of this variability may be localized to frontoparietal networks, in which functional differences may emerge from, or manifest as variability in task-relevant representations ([3], [135], [136]).”
Intellectual functioning of deaf adults and children: Answers and questions (2006, result): “Consistent with the Banks et al. findings, these results were interpreted as indicating that deaf students tend to focus on the meanings of individual words or pieces of text rather than taking a more relational, holistic approach to reading (see Wilhelm & Oberauer, 2006 this issue).”
How to use the diffusion model: Parameter recovery of three methods: EZ, fast-dm, and DMAT (2009, background): “…are also increasingly used in psychometric research tomeasure individual differences in general processing speed, or of speed in specific cognitive processes (Danthiir, Roberts, Schulze, & Wilhelm, 2005; Fry & Hale, 1996; Larson & Alderton, 1990; Salthouse, 1998; Wilhelm & Oberauer, 2006).”
Design for a working memory. (2009, result): “Further support for this conclusion comes from a study by Wilhelm and Oberauer (2006), who related speed in four-choice tasks with compatible and with arbitrary stimulus–response mappings to measures of (declarative) WM capacity.”
When are fluid intelligence and working memory isomorphic and when are they not (2013, background): “So, Wilhelm and Oberauer (2006) argued that storage capacity determines psychometric speed, because tasks that measure speed require active storage of stimulus–response (S–”
What is working memory capacity, and how can we measure it? (2013, background): “…common to control for effects of task order (including effects of item order and block order) in experimental settings but very uncommon to do so when the purpose of testing is to measure person parameters (see Wilhelm and Oberauer, 2006 for a regression analytic application with binding measures).”
Which Working Memory Functions Predict Intelligence (2008, background): “The common denominator of working memory and other complex tasks such as reasoning could be the capacity to build and maintain such bindings (Oberauer, 2005a; Wilhelm & Oberauer, 2006).”
