  • Summary

    The last 50 years have witnessed an exponential growth and significant progress in working memory and language sciences research independently and jointly, though a generalizable theory or model that transcends disciplines is still absent from the literature. Drawing on multidisciplinary insights from cognitive science and emerging patterns from language sciences, we propose an integrated account of working memory as a viable taxonomy framework for linking its putative components and processes with aspects of language acquisition and processing domains and skills, bilingual development, and specific language impairments. We end the chapter by outlining further directions to reinforce the reintegration of working memory and language sciences as couched within the key tenets and basic principles of this integrative account.
