differences in theory construction (Cohen, 1994; Cronbach, 1957; Kosslyn et al., 2002; Melton, 1967; Underwood, 1975) In particular, it has been suggested that theories of memory and attentional processes (and cognition in general) need to attempt to account for individual differences in the ability to carry out the processes specified in the theory Although interest in individual differences in cognitive processes has waxed and waned over the years, one area that has seen fairly continual interest is that of immediate memory processes This chapter reviews prior research and our current thinking on individual differences in working memory capacity (WMC), the nature of WMC limitations, the role of WMC in cognitive tasks, and the relation between WMC and higher-order cognition Although there are many other excellent research programs studying working memory and individual differences in WMC, here we primarily focus on our own work As will be seen, our work draws on prior reviews published in this series including Atkinson and Shiffrin (1968), Baddeley and Hitch (1974), Cowan, Morey, Chen, Gilchrist, and Saults (2008), and Engle and Kane (2004), among others Like prior calls to combine experimental and differential methods, we use individual differences as a means of not only understanding differences among individuals in cognitive capabilities, but also to better understand the nature and function of working memory more broadly IMPORTANCE OF WORKING MEMORY Research examining immediate memory is typically cast in frameworks distinguishing information that is utilized over the short-term from information that is utilized over the long-term Initially, immediate memory was conceptualized as a somewhat passive repository of information before that information was transferred to long-term or secondary memory In early modal models of memory, immediate memory was seen as having limited capacity and important task-relevant information was maintained primarily via verbal rehearsal If the information was not rehearsed, then it was rapidly lost from the system Despite the importance of immediate memory and a wealth of data supporting a division between immediate and long-term memory, it soon Individual Differences in WMC became clear that immediate memory, as initially conceptualized, was overly simplistic in terms of being a simple passive buffer With this limitation clearly in mind Atkinson and Shiffrin (1971) and Baddeley and Hitch (1974), among others, argued for a dynamic memory system where the function of immediate memory was to carry out cognitive operations important for a wide variety of tasks Specifically, Baddeley and Hitch (1974) argued for a memory system that could simultaneously manipulate the currents contents of memory as well as update information in memory to accomplish task goals They called this system working memory to emphasize the need for actively working with information rather than simply passively holding onto the information (see also Atkinson & Shiffrin, 1968, 1971; Miller, Galanter, & Pribram, 1960) Early prominent models of working memory suggested that it was not only a system responsible for actively maintaining task-relevant information, but also a system composed of many important control processes that ensure proper maintenance, storage, and retrieval of that information (eg, Atkinson & Shiffrin, 1968, 1971; Baddeley & Hitch, 1974) These control processes included rehearsal, coding, organization, and retrieval strategies Importantly, these control processes were thought to be needed for coordinating the many subcomponent processes necessary for processing new information and to retrieve relevant old information This conceptualization placed working memory at the forefront of explaining complex cognitive activities Given the theoretical importance of working memory in a broad array of tasks and situations, research over the last 35 plus years has been aimed at examining the predictive power of working memory That is, the capacity of working memory should be related to a number of measures that rely on working memory Largely beginning with Daneman and Carpenter (1980) research has found that individual differences in WMC are one of the best predictors of a broad array of cognitive capabilities Specifically, research has shown that measures of WMC are related to reading and language comprehension (Daneman & Carpenter, 1980), complex learning (Kyllonen & Stephens, 1990), performance on standardized achievement tests (Engle, Tuholski, Laughlin, & Conway, 1999), and vocabulary learning (Daneman & Green, 1986) Thus, as theorized, measures of WMC demonstrate strong and consistent relations with a broad array of cognitive abilities that are thought to rely on working memory processes Beginning with the work of Kyllonen and Christal (1990) research has suggested that there is a strong link between individual differences in WMC and intelligence (see also Engle et al., 1999; Kane et al., 2004) In Nash Unsworth particular, this work suggests that at an individual task level, measures of WMC correlate with fluid intelligence (gF) around 0.45 (Ackerman, Beier, & Boyle, 2005) and at the latent level, WMC and gF are correlated around 0.72 (Kane, Hambrick, & Conway, 2005) Thus, at a latent level WMC and gF seem to share approximately half of their variance As a further example of this relation, we reanalyzed data from 867 participants from our laboratory each of which had completed three WMC measures and three gF measures Shown in Fig is the resulting latent variable model As can be seen, WMC and gF abilities were strongly related These examples demonstrate that WMC and gF are strongly related and share a good deal of common variance Furthermore, these results demonstrate that this important relation is domain-general in nature given that both the WMC and gF factors were made up by tasks varying in their content This suggests that whatever the reasons for the relation between WMC and fluid abilities, they are likely domain-general and cut across multiple different types of tasks Additionally, not only has WMC been implicated in higher-order cognition, but WMC is also implicated in other research domains For example, measures of WMC predict early onset Alzheimer’s disease (Rosen, Bergeson, Putnam, Harwell, & Sunderland, 2002), one’s ability to deal with life-event stress (Klein & Boals, 2001), aspects of personality (Unsworth Figure Confirmatory factor analysis for working memory capacity (WMC) and fluid intelligence

the p < 0.05 level Individual Differences in WMC et al., 2009), susceptibility to choking under pressure (Beilock & Carr, 2005), and stereotype threat (Schamader & Johns, 2003) Furthermore, various neuropsychological disorders, including certain aphasias (Caspari, Parkinson, LaPointe, & Katz, 1998), Alzheimer’s disease (Kempler, Almor, Tyler, Andersen, & MacDonald, 1998), schizophrenia (Stone, Gabrieli, Stebbins, & Sullivan, 1998), and Parkinson’s disease (Gabrieli, Singh, Stebbins, & Goetz, 1996), have been linked to deficits in WMC Thus, the utility of WMC is not merely limited to performance on high-level cognitive tasks, but is also important in a variety of situations that impact people on a day-to-day basis A THEORETICAL FRAMEWORK FOR WORKING MEMORY CAPACITY Based on prior work we have developed a theory of individual differences in WMC which suggests that individual differences in WMC result from multiple facets, each of which is important for performance on a variety of tasks (Unsworth, 2014; Unsworth & Engle, 2007; Unsworth, Fukuda, Awh, & Vogel, 2014; Unsworth & Spillers, 2010a) Similar to prior conceptions, we think of working memory as consisting of memory units active above some threshold that can be represented via a variety of different codes (phonological, visuospatial, semantic, etc.), as well as a set of general purpose control processes (eg, Atkinson & Shiffrin, 1971; Cowan, 1988; 1995) Specifically, in line with classic dual-component models of memory, we suggest that there is a limited capacity component important for maintaining information over short time intervals and a larger more durable component important for maintaining information over longer time intervals (Atkinson & Shiffrin, 1968; Raaijmakers & Shiffrin, 1980) Similar to James (1890), we refer to these two components as primary memory (PM) and secondary memory (SM; c.f Craik, 1971; Craik & Levy, 1976) Thus, similar to the model initially proposed by Atkinson and Shiffrin (1971), working memory represents both the activated portion of the long-term repository and the set of control processes that act on those activated representations to bring them into a heightened state of activation and actively maintain them in the face of distraction (see also Engle et al., 1999) In this framework, attention control processes serve to actively maintain a few distinct representations for online processing in PM These representations include things such as goal states for the current task, action plans, partial solutions to reasoning problems, and item representations in list Nash Unsworth memory tasks In this view, as long as attention is allocated to these representations, they will be actively maintained in PM (Craik & Levy, 1976) This continued allocation of attention serves to protect these representations from interfering internal and external distraction (eg, Engle & Kane, 2004; Unsworth & Engle, 2007) However, if attention is removed from the representations due to internal or external distraction or due to the processing of incoming information that exceed capacity, these representations will no longer be actively maintained in PM and therefore, will have to be retrieved from SM if needed Accordingly, SM relies on a cue-dependent search mechanism to retrieve items (Raaijmakers & Shiffrin, 1980; Shiffrin, 1970) Additionally, the extent to which items can be retrieved from SM will be dependent on overall encoding abilities, the ability to reinstate the encoding context at retrieval, and the ability to focus the search on target items and exclude interfering items (ie, proactive interference) Similar to Atkinson and Shiffrin (1968, 1971) this framework suggests that working memory is not only a state of activation, but also represents the set of control processes that are needed to maintain that state of activation, to prevent other items from gaining access to this state of activation, and to bring other items into this state of activation via controlled retrieval (Engle et al., 1999) Thus, working memory represents a dynamic interface between information present in the environment and our repository of past experiences Within the current framework, individual differences in WMC arise from multiple different factors Specifically, as discussed more thoroughly throughout, individual differences in WMC arise from differences in the capacity of PM, differences in attention control processes that serve to maintain task-relevant information in PM, and differences in control processes that ensure that task-relevant information is properly encoded in and retrieved from SM Thus, we will suggest that there are three primary reasons for differences in WMC, and each of these different facets is important for the predictive power of WMC That is, measures of WMC are related to performance in a wide variety of tasks and situations It seems unlikely that there is a single cause/mechanism responsible for these relations Indeed, prior research has consistently shown that if you covary out one primary cause (such as attention control) the relation between WMC and some other variable (eg, gF) is reduced but not completely eliminated (ie, Unsworth, 2014; Unsworth & Spillers, 2010a) Thus, it is unlikely that individual differences in WMC reduce to a single common cause Here we suggest that WMC represents a number of important related facets, each of which is important for higher-order cognitive processes Furthermore, we suggest Individual Differences in WMC that individuals may differ on some, or all of these facets, thereby determining the relation with other measures Collectively, this suggests that there are multiple functional roles that WMC plays, and points to the multifaceted nature of individual differences in WMC In the next sections, we discuss in detail ours and related work on these facets MULTIPLE FACETS INFLUENCE INDIVIDUAL DIFFERENCES IN WORKING MEMORY CAPACITY 4.1 Capacity of Primary Memory We consider PM as the small set of items that are in heightened state of activation and the current focus of processing That is, the small set of items that an individual is currently consciously working with We have argued that the function of PM is to maintain a distinct number of separate representations active for ongoing processing These representations remain active via the continued allocation of attention This is consistent with prior work by Craik and Levy (1976) who suggested that “the capacity of primary memory is the number of events that can be attended to simultaneously or the number of internal representations that can be simultaneously activated by the process of attention” (Craik & Levy, 1976, p 166) Thus, PM is the small set of items that are being maintained in mind from the environment or the small set of items that are reactivated from our long-term repository Craik and Levy (1976) go on to note that “information is ‘in PM’ only by virtue of the continued allocation of attention; when attention is diverted the trace is left in SM” (p 166) Similar to Craik and Levy (1976) we assume that an item is in PM if it is currently be attended to If attention is directed elsewhere, due to processing new information or having attention captured by internal (mind-wandering) or external distraction, representations will be displaced from PM Similar to the view advocated here, Craik and Levy (1976) argued that the capacity of PM is the capacity to maintain a distinct number of representations by continually paying attention to those representations This suggests that a key aspect to PM is the ability to individuate and apprehend multiple items and maintain those items in an active state to facilitate the further processing of task-relevant information (Cowan, 2001) PM is also thought to be a highly flexible component that changes depending on the current context and goals (Atkinson & Shiffrin, 1968, 1971; Davelaar, Goshen-Gottstein, Ashkenazi, Haarmann, & Usher, 2005) That is, PM is not simply a buffer limited to a particular number 314 F Face-in-the-crowd paradigm, 299–300
