In Search of the Executive Cognitive Processes Proposed by Process-Overlap Theory
Journal of Intelligence, 2021 Process-Overlap Theory (POT) suggests that measures of cognitive abilities sample from sets of independent cognitive processes. These cognitive processes can be separated into domain-general executive processes, sampled by the majority of cognitive ...

Domain-general ability underlies complex object ensemble processing.
Journal of Experimental Psychology: General, 2022 When seeing groups of objects, various features can be extracted to form an ensemble representation, including low-level features such as orientation and higher-level features like facial expression. Past research proposed distinct abilities for ensemble coding of high-level versus low-level visual features, but the only complex objects used were faces.

The domain-specific and domain-general relationships of visuospatial working memory to reasoning ability [PDF]
Psychonomic Bulletin & Review, 2016 The degree to which visuospatial working memory (VSWM) is separable from working memory in general is an open question. On one hand, the construct is often researched as a unitary, domain-specific system. On the other, there is evidence that VWSM shares a common processing component with verbal memory.

Metacognitive judgment and denial of deficit: Evidence from frontotemporal dementia
Judgment and Decision Making, 2007 Patients suffering from the behavioral variant of Frontotemporal Dementia (FTD-b) often exaggerate their abilities. Are those errors in judgment limited to domains in which patients under-perform, or do FTD-b patients overestimate their abilities in ...
