Navigating the link between processing speed and network communication in the human brain | SpringerLink
 Navigating the link between processing speed and network communication in the human brain | SpringerLink  https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s00429-021-02241-8AbstractProcessing speed on cognitive tasks relies upon efficient communication between widespread regions of the brain. Recently, novel methods of quantifying network communication like ' navigation efficiency ' have emerged, which aim to be more biologically plausible compared to traditional shortest path length-based measures. However, it is still unclear whether there is a direct link between these communication measures and processing speed. We...

 Testing (quizzing) boosts classroom learning: A systematic and meta-analytic review. - PsycNET  https://psycnet.apa.org/record/2021-24563-001AbstractOver the last century hundreds of studies have demonstrated that testing is an effective intervention to enhance long-term retention of studied knowledge and facilitate mastery of new information, compared with restudying and many other learning strategies (e.g., concept mapping), a phenomenon termed the testing effect. How robust is this effect in applied settings beyond the laboratory? The current review integrated 48,478 students ' data, extracted from 222 indepe...

Executive function-related functional connectomes predict intellectual abilities - ScienceDirect
 Executive function-related functional connectomes predict intellectual abilities - ScienceDirect  https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S0160289621000118AbstractExecutive functions (EFs) refer to a range of cognitive control and regulation processes that coordinate thoughts and actions in a goal-directed way and are regarded as a hallmark of intellectual abilities. However, most studies have used a single measurement to explore the relationship between EFs and intelligence, and there is a lack of robust evidence to demonstrate the link between EF-related neural substrates and intelligen...

The structure of working memory during childhood: a systematic review: Journal of Cognitive Psychology: Vol 0, No 0
https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.1080/20445911.2021.1887199ABSTRACTThere are many working memory (WM) models, generally formulated and developed in adults. Controversies arise as to whether such models are adequate conceptualizations of WM in children. The aim of the present study is to perform a systematic review of studies that evaluate the structure of WM during childhood. Databases (PubMed, Scopus) and article reference lists were reviewed, identifying 264 studies and including 14 in the review. These include participants between 4 and 15 years of age, with typical development, and they evaluated the structure o...

Long-term stability of Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children –fifth edition scores in a clinical sample: Applied Neuropsychology: Child: Vol 0, No 0
This study investigated the stability of Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children –Fifth Edition (WISC-V) scores for 225 children and adolescents from an outpatient neuropsychological clinic across, on average, a 2.6 year test-retest interval. WISC-V mean scores were relatively constant but subtest stability score coefficients were all below 0.80 (M = 0.66) and only the Verbal Comprehension Index (VCI), Visual Spatial Index (VSI), and omnibus Full Scale IQ (FSIQ) stability coefficients exceeded 0.80. Neither intraindividual subtest difference scores nor intraindividual composite difference scores were stable across...

 Age and ability differentiation in children: A review and empirical investigation. - PsycNET  https://psycnet.apa.org/record/2021-14006-001AbstractDifferentiation hypotheses concern changes in the structural organization of cognitive abilities that depend on the level of general intelligence (ability differentiation) or age (developmental differentiation). Part 1 of this article presents a review of the literature on ability and developmental differentiation effects in children, revealing the need for studies that examine both effects simultaneously in this age group with appropriate statistical methods. Part 2 ...
