Peer reviewedSchumann-Hengsteler, Ruth – International Journal of Behavioral Development, 1992
Two studies investigated the effect of age on memory for visual and spatial information. Five to 10 year olds were asked to reconstruct a previously seen spatial arrangement of objects. The association between an object's identity and its location was weaker for younger than for older children. (LB)

Peer reviewedSchneider, Wolfgang; Sodian, Beate – Journal of Experimental Child Psychology, 1991
Children were tested at ages four and six for recall of clusterable objects under play and sort conditions. Conceptual clustering predicted recall performance of six-year olds in both conditions and of four-year olds in the sort condition. The stability of memory variables was low with the exception of free recall. (BC)
