Learning a new geometric concept: The role of working memory and of domain-specific abilities. [PDF]
Br J Educ Psychol, 2021 It has been suggested that not only domain‐specific factors but also working memory (WM) may play a crucial role in mathematical learning included Geometry, but the issue has not been deeply explored. In the present study, we examined the role of domain‐specific factors and of verbal versus visuospatial WM on geometric learning of a new geometrical ...

The domain specificity of working memory is a matter of ability [PDF]
Journal of Memory and Language, 2019 The relative importance of domain-general and domain-specific sources of variance in working memory capacity (WMC) is a matter of debate. In intelligence research, the question of domain-generality is informed by differentiation: the phenomenon that the size of across-domain correlations is inversely related to ability: the lower the ability, the more ...

Domain‐specific knowledge and domain‐general abilities in children's science problem‐solving
British Journal of Educational Psychology, 2023 Abstract Background Problem‐solving in early and middle childhood is of high relevance for cognitive developmental research and educational support. Previous research on science problem‐solving has focussed on the process and strategies of children handling challenging tasks, but less on ...

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.
