“…However, some other research has challenged the view that these capacity limits per se underlie the relation (e.g., Hagemann et al, 2023). Specifically, some studies showed that questions on fluid intelligence tests that are more cognitively demanding, and thus should require more working memory storage to be solved, do not correlate more strongly with working memory capacity (Salthouse & Pink, 2008;Burgoyne et al, 2019;Wiley et al, 2011;Unsworth & Engle, 2005; but also see Frischkorn & Oberauer, 2021;Smolen & Chuderski, 2015). Instead, it has been suggested that other aspects of working memory tasks such as attentional control processes (Draheim et al, 2022), the usage of encoding strategies (Babic et al, 2019), or the ability to adapt and apply rules (Salthouse & Pink, 2008;Wiley et al, 2011;Duncan et al, 2012) might be the crucial factors that drive the correlation between working memory performance and fluid intelligence.…”
