Arithmetic Word Problems Revisited
Solving arithmetic word problems is a complex task that requires individuals to activate their working memory resources, as well as the correct performance of the underlying executive processes involved in order to inhibit semantic biases or superficial responses caused by the problem’s statement. This paper describes a study carried out with 135 students of Secondary Obligatory Education, each of whom solved 5 verbal arithmetic problems: 2 consi…
Relaciones entre memoria operativa, inteligencia, comprensión lectora y rendimiento académico en Historia en 4o de la Educación Secundaria
The aim of this paper is focused on the interrelationships between Working Memory (WM) executive processes and fluid intelligence with reading comprehension, and their common ability to predict academic achievement in History. Twenty six secondary school students participated in this study. The results indicate that cognitive variables correlate with each other and with academic performance. The regression analysis showed that reading comprehensi…
Reading Comprehension and Working Memory's Executive Processes
Reading comprehension is a highly demanding task that involves the simultaneous process of extracting and constructing meaning in which working memory's executive processes play a crucial role. In this article, a training program on working memory's executive processes to improve reading comprehension is presented and empirically tested in two experiments with third‐grade primary school students. Experiment 1 showed a greater gain after training …
Memória de trabalho e inferência silogística
Na presente investigação procurou-se estudar as relações entre a memória de trabalho e o raciocínio dedutivo a partir da perspectiva das diferenças individuais (i.e. saber se o desempenho em tarefas raciocínio pode ser previsto a partir da capacidade de memória de trabalho). Nesse sentido, são usados problemas de raciocínio silogístico que diferem em termos do nível de exigência cognitiva previsto pela teoria dos modelos mentais (e.g. Johnson-Lai…
