工作记忆容量的效率通过使用用日语和英语编写的阅读广度测试（测试）来测量。日语版的Komodo是基于Daneman和Carpenter（1980）开发的英语版Komodo（CMU版本）。英语作为第二语言版本（ESL版本）也为日本本土大学生开发。日语和ESL版本之间的相关性被发现是非常显着的（0.84）。此外，日本和CMU版本之间的相关性被认为是高（0.72）。结果表明，阅读的工作记忆效率似乎与语言结构无关。因此，目前开发的日文版的预测器很可能以与CMU版本相同的方式预测阅读效率。
The efficiency of working memory capacity was measured with the use of a reading span test (RST) written in Japanese and in English. The Japanese version of the RST was based on the RST developed by Daneman and Carpenter (1980) in English (CMU version). An English-as-a-second-language version (ESL version) was also developed for native Japanese college students. The correlation between the Japanese and ESL versions was found to be highly significant (0.84). Moreover, the correlation between the Japanese and CMU versions was found to be high (0.72). The results indicate that the efficiency of working memory for reading appears to be independent of language structure. Thus, the presently developed Japanese version of the RST is likely to predict reading efficiency in the same way that the CMU version does.
