“…WM is a short-term memory that allows the acquisition, storage, and manipulation of new information on a temporary basis (Baddeley, 2012). It has been the subject of investigations in the adult population, with or without an associated clinical condition (Martinussen et al, 2005) and has been identified as one of the most impaired EFs in individuals with ADHD (Diamond, 2013;Areces et al, 2018;Mukherjee et al, 2021), which may negatively influence several areas of life, such as academic achievement, emotional processing and social relationships (Alloway, 2006;Mukherjee et al, 2021). Several authors have argued that WM deficits are more frequent in the predominantly inattentive and the combined subtypes, since there seems to be a relationship between attention deficits and WM functioning (Baddeley and Hitch, 1974;Milla-Cano and Gatica-Ferrero, 2020;Zhao et al, 2020).…”
