Journal Article
Ikeda, Y., Kita, Y., Oi, Y., Okuzumi, H., Lanfranchi, S., Pulina, F., …Giofrè, D. (2023). The Structure of Working Memory and Its Relationship with Intelligence in Japanese Children. Journal of Intelligence, 11(8), Article 167. https://doi.org/10.3390/jintelligence11080167

There is a host of research on the structure of working memory (WM) and its relationship with intelligence in adults, but only a few studies have involved children. In this paper, several different WM models were tested on 170 Japanese school childre... Read More about The Structure of Working Memory and Its Relationship with Intelligence in Japanese Children.

Using working memory performance to predict mathematics performance 2 years on (2020)
Journal Article
Allen, K., Giofrè, D., Higgins, S., & Adams, J. (2020). Using working memory performance to predict mathematics performance 2 years on. Psychological Research, 85(5), 1986-1996. https://doi.org/10.1007/s00426-020-01382-5

A number of previous studies have used working memory components to predict mathematical performance in a variety of ways; however, there is no consideration of the contributions of the subcomponents of visuospatial working memory to this prediction....

Working Memory Predictors of Written Mathematics in 7-8 Year Old Children (2019)
Journal Article
Allen, K., Giofrè, D., Higgins, S., & Adams, J. (2020). Working Memory Predictors of Written Mathematics in 7-8 Year Old Children. Quarterly Journal of Experimental Psychology, 73(2), 239-248. https://doi.org/10.1177/1747021819871243

There is extensive evidence for the involvement of working memory in mathematical attainment. This study aims to identify the relative contributions of verbal, spatial-simultaneous, and spatial-sequential working memory measures in written mathematic...
