ZAPATA, Luis Felipe; DE LOS REYES, Carlos; LEWIS, Soraya y BARCELO, Ernesto. Working memory and academic achievement in freshmen students of a university in barranquilla. Psicol. caribe [online]. 2009, n.23, pp.66-82. ISSN 0123-417X.
Working memory can influence academic achievement, eventhough is not the only component. This article shows research findings that tried to determine the correlation between working memory and academic achievement in freshmen students of a university in Barranquilla. There was not correlation between any of the working memory measures used and academic achievement. These results can be explained throughout many variables that can affect academic achievement such as, cognition, motivation, emotion and context.
