Children’s working memory: Investigating performance limitations in complex span tasks (2005)
Journal Article
Conlin, J., Gathercole, S., & Adams, J. (2005). Children’s working memory: Investigating performance limitations in complex span tasks. Journal of Experimental Child Psychology, 90(4), 303-317. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jecp.2004.12.001

Three experiments investigated the roles of resource-sharing and intrinsic memory demands in complex working memory span performance in 7- and 9-year-olds. In Experiment 1, the processing complexity of arithmetic operations was varied under condition...

Stimulus similarity decrements in children's working memory span (2005)
Journal Article
Conlin, J., Gathercole, S., & Adams, J. (2005). Stimulus similarity decrements in children's working memory span. Quarterly journal of experimental psychology. A, 58(8), 1434-1446. https://doi.org/10.1080/02724980443000683

Two experiments investigated the impact of the relationship between processing and storage stimuli on the working memory span task performance of children aged 7 and 9 years of age. In Experiment 1, two types of span task were administered (sentence... Read More about Stimulus similarity decrements in children's working memory span.
