The review also found that the evidence that working memory training leads to improvements in other areas such as literacy and numeracy is inconclusive at best, and that further research will be required for us to better understand the mechanism through which working memory training may improve working memory and academic performance in children.

The study identifies a gap in our understanding of the effects of tDCS on working memory in healthy adults. - The study notes that prior research has yielded mixed findings, and that further research is needed to fully understand the potential benefits and limitations of tDCS. - The study suggests that the current evidence base is limited by methodological uncertainty.
