Time and cognitive load in working memory. (2007, background): “…processing components that varied either in duration or cognitive demand in a series of studies using new working memory span tasks that are not self- but computer-paced (Barrouillet et al., 2004; Barrouillet & Camos, 2001; Gavens & Barrouillet, 2004; Lépine, Bernardin, & Barrouillet, 2005).”
Time constraints and resource sharing in adults' working memory spans. (2004, methodology): “As Barrouillet and Camos (2001) had already observed in children, the operation span is lower than the baba span in adults when the duration of the two tasks is kept constant.”
Two maintenance mechanisms of verbal information in working memory (2009, background): “…memory emphasize its relationship with attentional processes and, more specifically, suggest that the maintenance of information relies on refreshing of the memory traces through attentional focusing (Barrouillet & Camos, 2001; Barrouillet et al., 2004, 2007; Cowan, 1999, 2005; Johnson, 1992).”
Working memory and language learning: A review (2017, methodology): “According to the cognitive load metric proposed by Barrouillet and Camos (2001), the working memory load imposed by a processing task is dependent on the number of the retrievals from long-term memory, the nature of the retrievals, and the total time allowed to perform the retrievals.”
