P300 Latency and Memory Span Development.
Howard, Lawrence; Polich, John
Developmental Psychology, v21 n2 p283-89 Mar 1985
Digit span and latency from P300 component of event-related brain potential--a measure of stimulus evaluation time--were obtained from children and adults. Increases in digit span were associated with decreases in peak latency for children but not adults, suggesting that immediate memory development is tightly coupled with decreases in speed of stimulus identification.
