• Working memory training does not improve intelligence in healthy young adults (2012, methodology): “Colom et al. (2010) provided support for the stability of general intelligence using factor analyses that revealed no significant changes in the most g-loaded tests after training on either memory (short term memory and working memory) tasks or processing speed andattention tasks.”
• Working memory, fluid intelligence, and science learning (2006, methodology): “…practice on memorizing and training on the use of memory strategies could substantially improve ordinary people’s memory, however, the improvement was limited to the special type of information used in the training (Chase & Ericsson, 1982; Ericsson & Delaney, 1999; Ericsson & Kintsch, 1995).”
• Working Memory and Fluid Intelligence in Young Children. (2010, background): “Many studies have shown that in adults, Gf and WM are strongly linked (Colom et al., 2003; Conway et al., 2002; Cowan et al., 2005; Engle, Tuholski, et al., 1999; Kane et al., 2004).”
• Reasoning=working memory¿attention (2005, methodology): “Colom, Flores-Mendoza, and Rebollo (2003) found a relationship between factor scores of working memory and intelligence ranging from r=0.69 to r=0.71 measured with the SPM by Raven (CEPA, 1993) and the letter series of the Primary Mental Ability Test (Thurstone, 1938).”
• Working memory is (almost) perfectly predicted by g (2004, background): “Colom et al. (2003) found a correlation of .70 between WM and fluid intelligence.”
• Working memory and intelligence: the same or different constructs? (2005, background): “The higher order factor that Colom et al. (2003) identified as “WM” is actually identified with four lower order factors: Processing Speed, Working Memory, Declarative Knowledge, and Procedural Knowledge, not just with WM.”
• The relationship between trait emotional intelligence and creativity across subject domains (2011, methodology): “Since the g factor is closer to Gf than to Gc (crystallized cognitive ability), we used the PMA-R as a proxy of general cognitive ability, in line with previous studies (e.g., Colom et al. 2003).”
