Phonological short-term memory impairment and the word length effect in children with intellectual disabilities.
Working memory in school-age children with and without a persistent speech sound disorder
TLDR
The results suggest that co-morbid low-average nonverbal intelligence are linked to poor working memory in children with P-SSD.

The Relation Between Working Memory and Reading Intervention Outcomes in Children with Developmental Dyslexia
This study explored three theoretical models for understanding working memory (WM) in struggling readers. Research has shown relations between working memory and reading, especially on foundational…
A Profile of Working Memory Ability in Poor Readers
Objective This study aimed to provide a comprehensive working memory profile of a group of children with established poor reading ability. Methods Participants included a group of established “poor…
Working memory deficits in boys with attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD): An examination of orthographic coding and episodic buffer processes
TLDR
It is suggested that ADHD-related working memory deficits reflect a combination of impaired central executive and phonological storage/rehearsal processes, as well as an impaired ability to benefit from bound multimodal information processed by the episodic buffer.
Executive Functioning in Intellectual Disability 1 Running head: EXECUTIVE FUNCTIONING IN INTELLECTUAL DISABILITY Strengths and weaknesses in executive functioning in children with intellectual disability
TLDR
It is suggested that children with ID have a specific profile of executive functioning, with MA appropriate abilities to generate new exemplars (fluency) and to switch attention between tasks, but difficulties with respect to inhibiting pre-potent responses, planning, and non-verbal executive-loaded working memory.
Subject-performed task effect on working memory performance in children with autism spectrum disorder.
A previous study found that children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) have better recall when they perform instructions (subject-performed task [SPT]) than when they passively hear instructions…
Preserving the Past: An Early Interview Improves Delayed Event Memory in Children With Intellectual Disabilities
TLDR
Interviewers should elicit CWID's recall as early as possible and consider developmental level and severity of impairments when evaluating eyewitness testimony.

Verbal working memory in children with mild intellectual disabilities.
TLDR
The results showed that the children with mild ID had an intact automatic rehearsal, but performed poorly on phonological-loop capacity and central-executive tests when compared withChildren matched for chronological age, while there were only minimal differences relative to the performance of the children matched for mental age.

TLDR
Compensatory strategies for weak PSTM may help to improve reading and spelling skills in children with ID, whereas reducing CELWM loads may be more helpful in aiding their number skills.

A structural analysis of working memory and related cognitive skills in young children.
Working Memory in the Classroom
Working memory performance in children with and without intellectual disabilities.
TLDR
Some evidence supported an unconventional "difference" account; children in the intellectual disabilities group performed better than the MA group, although still not as well as the CA-matched group.
The Effect of Intellectual Disability on Children's Recall of an Event Across Different Question Types
TLDR
Overall, this study showed that children with either a mild or moderate intellectual disability can provide accurate and highly specific event-related information, however, their recall is less complete and less clear in response to free-narrative prompts and less accurate in reply to specific questions when compared to both the mainstream age-matched groups.
Eyewitness Memory, Suggestibility, and Repeated Recall Sessions in Children with Mild and Moderate Intellectual Disabilities
TLDR
Performance was similar, although children with ID gave more information in response to free recall instructions and changed their answers in the repeated interview more often, and standardized measures of verbal memory and suggestibility were modest to moderate predictors of eyewitness memory performance.
Executive functions in children with communication impairments, in relation to autistic symptomatology
TLDR
Evidence of inhibitory deficits was found but these were neither specific to autism, nor linked to particular aspects of autistic symptomatology, and appeared to be associated with poor verbal skills and inattention.
Associative and strategic components of episodic memory: a life-span dissociation.
TLDR
The authors conclude that the comparison of strategic and associative components of episodic memory across the life span helps to delineate the two components' unique and interactive contributions to episodi memory performance.
