Relation between Intelligence and Short-Term Memory

Cohen, Ronald L.; Sandberg, Tor

Cognitive Psychology, 9, 4, 534-54, Oct 77

Intelligence and short-term memory correlations in children were measured using probed serial recall of supraspan digit lists. Results showed the predictive power of intelligence to range from a maximum in the case of recall for recency items to practically zero in the case of primacy items. (Author/MV)
