Working Memory and Intelligence: The Same or Different Constructs?
Several investigators have claimed over the past decade that working memory (WM) and general intelligence ( g ) are identical, or nearly identical, constructs, from an individual-differences perspective. Although memory measures are commonly included in intelligence tests, and memory abilities are i...

description | Several investigators
have claimed over the past decade that working memory (WM) and general intelligence
(
g
) are identical, or nearly identical, constructs, from an
individual-differences perspective. Although memory measures are commonly included in
intelligence tests, and memory abilities are included in theories of intelligence, the
identity between WM and intelligence has not been evaluated comprehensively. The authors
conducted a meta-analysis of 86 samples that relate WM to intelligence. The average
correlation between true-score estimates of WM and
g
is substantially
less than unity (
=.479). The authors also focus on the distinction between short-term
memory and WM with respect to intelligence with a supplemental meta-analysis. The authors
discuss how consideration of psychometric and theoretical perspectives better informs the
discussion of WM-intelligence relations. |
