Working Memory Underpins Cognitive Development, Learning, and Education (2013, positive): “When the complexity of the task is increased, the time to adult-like performance is extended a bit further, with steady improvement throughout childhood (for an example, see Gathercole et al. 2004).”
Verbal and visuospatial short-term and working memory in children: are they separable? (2006, background): “Another possibility is that the working memory structure remains consistent across development, in line with previous findings from Gathercole et al. (2004) using a more restricted set of measures.”
Multiple-object tracking in children: The "Catch the Spies" task. (2005, background): “These three components are thought to develop independently (Gathercole, 1998; Gathercole, Pickering, Ambridge, & Wearing, 2004 ).”
Executive function and metacognition: Towards a unifying framework of cognitive self-regulation (2017, positive): “…Card Sorting task (shifting; Chevalier & Blaye, 2009): about 60-80% of 6 yr olds pass the task; • Go/No-Go task (inhibition; Cragg & Nation, 2008): on average 77% correct trials with an average speed of 450 ms reaction time; • Listening Recall (updating, Gathercole et al., 2004): recall after max.”
