Kim, Young-Suk Grace; Schatschneider, Christopher – Journal of Educational Psychology, 2017

In this model, working memory was hypothesized to be a foundational cognitive ability for language and cognitive skills as well as transcription skills, which, in turn, contribute to writing. Foundational oral language skills…
