Pattern-Analyzing Disability in Poor Readers
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Kolers, Paul A. – Developmental Psychology, 1975
A test of recognition memory for sentences was administered to 22 poor readers and 15 good readers ages 10.5 to 14.6 years. Poor readers were markedly retarded in aspects of the graphemic analysis (pattern-analyzing) of the texts. (LLK)

The Development of Memory-Encoding Processes in Young Children
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Hall, James W.; Halperin, Marcia S. – Developmental Psychology, 1972
The present study tested the feasibility of using a purely verbal recognition-memory procedure with young children and examined the role of verbal associations in the memory encoding of such children. (Author)

Perception and 24-Hour Retention of Feature Relations in Infancy.
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Bhatt, Ramesh S.; Rovee-Collier, Carolyn – Developmental Psychology, 1994
Three experiments examined whether the perception and retention of feature relations, thought to be critical for object recognition in adults, are evident in early infancy. Three month olds' 24-hour retention was disrupted when features of a 6-item mobile were recombined, indicating that they not only encode feature relations but also remember…

Developmental Changes in the Interface between Perception and Memory Retrieval.
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Bhatt, Ramesh S.; And Others – Developmental Psychology, 1994
Four experiments examined how perception affects delayed recognition, visual pop out, and memory reactivation (priming) in six month olds. Infants discriminated cues differing in spatial arrangement or number of primitive perceptual units (textons) in a delayed recognition task and exhibited adultlike visual pop-out effects in a priming task.

Visual Recognition Memory in High- and Low-Risk Infant Pigtailed Macaques (Macaca Nemestrina).
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Gunderson, Virginia M.; And Others – Developmental Psychology, 1987
Study looks at pigtailed macaque in the context of visual recognition problems adapted from a standardized test developed for use with human infants. Results demonstrate that the low-risk group easily differentiated novel from previously seen targets; the high-risk group gave no evidence of recognition. (Author/RWB)

Development of Strategies for Recall and Recognition
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Tversky, Barbara; Teiffer, Evelyn – Developmental Psychology, 1976
A total of 122 kindergartners, third and fifth graders viewed 30 pictures of familiar objects and interested on their free recall of the object names and their recognition of the original pictures. Half received instruction in adult recognition strategies, half in adult recall strategies. (MS)

Attribute Dominance in Memory Development
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Means, Barbara M.; Rohwer, William D., Jr. – Developmental Psychology, 1976
A total of 72 children, 36 each from first and sixth grades, were given a 70-item study list followed by a recognition test list of equal length. To indicate the relative dominance of features encoded at both ages, labels, pictures, and referents were recombined to form visual, semantic and acoustic distractors. (MS)
