Linking working memory and long-term memory: A computational model of the learning of new words [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
The nonword repetition (NWR) test has been shown to be a good predictor of children’s vocabulary size. NWR performance has been explained using phonological working memory, which is seen as a critical component in the learning of new words.
