Peer reviewedHaith, Marshall M.; Morrison, Frederick J. – Journal of Experimental Child Psychology, 1976
A recall paradigm tested twenty-four 5-year-olds and twenty-four adults on short-term recognition memory for briefly presented visual information. Results indicate that processes other than verbal labeling are probably more responsible for age differences in immediate memory performance than labeling. (JH)

Peer reviewedMendelson, Morton J.; Lee, Siu Ping – Journal of Experimental Child Psychology, 1981
Investigated the influence of vertical, horizontal, and diagonal symmetry on recognition memory in preschool, kindergarten, and second-grade children. The influence of contour was also investigated. Children were trained to attend to axes of symmetry in order to improve performance on a memory task. (Author/DB)

Peer reviewedKatz, Robert B.; And Others – Journal of Experimental Child Psychology, 1981
Examined the hypothesis that good and poor readers would differ in their ability to order stimuli that can be easily recoded as words and stored in phonetic form, but not in their ability to order nonlinguistic stimuli that do not lend themselves to phonetic recoding in short-term memory.
