Mandler, Jean M.; McDonough, Laraine – Journal of Experimental Child Psychology, 1995
Two experiments demonstrated that 11-month olds can encode novel causal events from a brief period of observational learning and recall much of the information after 24 hours and after 3 months. The infants remembered more individual actions than whole sequences, but reproduced many of the events in their entirety after the long delay. (MDM)
