Abstract. Although attention control accounts for a unique portion of the variance in working memory capacity (WMC), the way in which attention control contributes to WMC has not been thoroughly specified. The current work focused on fractionating attention control into distinctly different executive processes and examined to what extent key processes of attention control including updating, shifting, and prepotent response inhibition were related to WMC and whether these relations were different. A number of 216 university students completed experimental tasks of attention control and two measures of WMC. Latent variable analyses were employed for separating and modeling each process and their effects on WMC. The results showed that both the accuracy of updating and shifting were substantially related to WMC while the link from the accuracy of inhibition to WMC was insignificant; on the other hand, only the speed of shifting had a moderate effect on WMC while neither the speed of updating nor the speed of inhibition showed significant effect on WMC. The results suggest that these key processes of attention control exhibit differential effects on individual differences in WMC. The approach that combined experimental manipulations and statistical modeling constitutes a promising way of investigating cognitive processes.

Latihan mental diartikan sebagai latihan yang dilakukan atlet untukmeningkatkan fungsi berpikirnya agar dapat mengendalikan tubuh dantindakannya. Pelatihan mental merupakan latihan yang dilakukan untukmemperoleh ketahanan mental, sehingga dapat mencapai prestasi yang prima dalamsetiap pertandingan. Tahapan atau fase latihan mental terbagi menjadi tiga, yaitu : 1. Tahap pendidikan, 2. Tahap akuisisi atau Perolehan, 3. Tahap Pelatihan. Keterampilan psikologis atau mental yang dapat dikembangkan melalui metodependidikan dan latihan ada empat, yaitu: goal-setting, physical relaxation,thought/attention control, dan imagery. Pada makalah ini dibahas mengenai latihanmental dalam kajian olahraga, jenis-jenis latiahan yang digunakan, penelitian yangrelevan serta beberapa teori yang mendasari latihan mental.Makalah ini menghasilkan kesimpulan bahwa dari bbagai penelitianmenunjukkan bahwa latihan imagery efektif untuk meningkatkan performa,meskipun pengaruhnya bersifat tidak langsung Sehingga pelatih diharapkanmenjadi konselor yang mampu memahami karakter atlet asuhannya dan bisamemberikan bimbingan yang konstruktif untuk membangun kesiapan dan kekuatanmental. Beberapa hal yang dibutuhkan oleh atlet adalah sebagai berikut: a. Givingencouragement than criticism, b. Respect, c. Realistic gol, d. Problem solving, e.Self awareness, f. Managing stres and emotion, g. Good interpersonal relation.

**The uploaded manuscript is still in preparation** In this study, we tested the relationship between visual arrays tasks and working memory capacity and attention control. Specifically, we tested whether task design (selection or non-selection demands) impacted the relationship between visual arrays measures and constructs of working memory capacity and attention control. Using analyses from 4 independent data sets we showed that the degree to which visual arrays measures rely on selection influences the degree to which they reflect domain-general attention control.

In mid-twentieth-century Britain, an archaeological vision of the British landscape reassured and enchanted a number of writers, artists, photographers, and film-makers. From John Piper, Eric Ravilious and Shell guide books, to photographs of bomb damage, aerial archaeology, and The Wizard of Oz, Kitty Hauser delves into these evocative interpretations and looks at how they affected the way the landscape was seen.
