Information Processing and Human Abilities
Kirby, John R.; Das, J. P.
Journal of Educational Psychology, 70, 1, 58-66, Feb 78

Simultaneous processing was found to be primarily related to spatial ability; and to a lesser extent, to memory and inductive reasoning. Subjects were 104 fourth-grade urban males. (Author/GD C)
