Meta-Analysis of Working Memory Training and its Generalization Effect
Message:
Abstract:
The current review examines the effectiveness of working memory training and its transfer effects on educational skills. The role of some effective factors in working memory training has been explained. Variety of data sources were searched and articles of working memory training published after 2000 were identified. Researches that utilized experimental or quasi-experimental designs and had a treated group or a control group were included in the article. Reviewing the findings of 35 articles indicated that working memory training has moderate effects on working memory capacity with an effect size d=0.65 (95 % CI 0.52–0.77). Generalization of working memory training to educational skills with an effect size d=0.25 (95 % CI 0.07–0.42) was in low level. Working memory training as an educational and treatment techniques seems to be effective in increasing individual’s working memory skills but shows low generalization effect to other educational skills. The lack of studies on transfer effects of working memory training limits conclusion in this area. Further research is needed to determine how effective this training will be in transferring to other domains.
