- Influence of neuroticism and conscientiousness on working memory training outcome (2012, background): “Growing evidence suggests that training on working memory (WM) can lead to increased performance in non-trained tasks (for reviews, see e.g. Buschkuehl & Jaeggi, 2010; Morrison & Chein, 2011).”
- Conclusions about Interventions, Programs, and Approaches for Improving Executive Functions that appear Justified and those that, despite much hype, do not (2015, background): “…training methods that looked at benefits for EFs include: Au et al. (2015), Klingberg (2010), Kueider et al. (2012), MelbyLervåg and Hulme (2013), Morrison and Chein (2011), Shipstead et al. (2012), Spencer-Smith and Klingberg (2015), Spierer et al. (2013), and von Bastian and Oberauer (2013).”
- The Brain’s Learning and Control Architecture (2012, neutral): “…engagement of specific brain regions within the cognitive control network (Dahlin, Backman, Neely, & Nyberg, 2009; Dux et al., 2009) and impart different advantages to other aspects of cognitive performance (for reviews, see Klingberg, 2010; Morrison & Chein, 2011; Tang & Posner, 2009).”
- Executive Functions (2012, neutral): “…2010, Davis et al. 2010 School readiness EFs are more important for school readiness than are IQ or entry-level reading or math Blair & Razza 2007, Morrison et al. 2010 School success EFs predict both math and reading competence throughout the school years Borella et al. 2010, Duncan et al.…”
- Is working memory training effective? A meta-analytic review. (2013, background): “Recently, excitement has been generated by claims that working memory capacity can be trained (e.g., Diamond & Lee, 2011; Klingberg, 2010; Morrison & Chein, 2011).”
- Working memory training does not improve intelligence in healthy young adults (2012, background): “The past several years have seen a proliferation of research on cognitive training, especially working memory training (Morrison & Chein, 2011).”
- Does Working Memory Training Transfer? A Meta-Analysis Including Training Conditions as Moderators (2015, background): “Morrison and Chein (2011) stated that so-called core training is more suited than strategy training to reach fartransfer effects.”
