Abstract

Working memory loads and trial contexts can affect problem solving based on association-based strategy such as a shortcut. Since relevant studies reported inconsistent results, this study aimed to test the effects of working memory loads and inefficient trial contexts on problem solving using a shortcut strategy. The results showed that faster and more accurate performance only in the shortcut condition after inefficient trials when working memory loads was high. This study suggests that cognitive and contextual factors have important influences on when solving problems using strategies.
