Attention and working memory

I've blogged frequently regarding what I think is one of the better models of working memory--the controlled executive attention model of Kane Conway Engle et al. COGNITIVE DAILEY provides a nice post re one recent study by this group.

For those readers of the IQ BRAIN CLOCK blog, this has been one of the primary cognitive
mechanisms I've suggested as being a possible causal explanation for the efficacy of mental timing interventions.
