Peer reviewedFoellinger, David B.; Trabasso, Tom – Child Development, 1977
The ability to recall and organize actions was studied in a sample of 80 children ranging in age from 5 to 11 years. Eight different auditory or visual commands were successively presented for 10 trials in each modality in a free-recall task. (Author/JMB)

Peer reviewedSpitzer, Tam M. – Child Development, 1976
A total of 120 children (aged 5, 9 and 11 years old) performed a spatial recall task utilizing either visual or auditory items. Results showed that visual recall was significantly superior to auditory recall at all age levels and all serial positions regardless of cue modality. (Author/JMB)

Peer reviewedHoving, Kenneth L.; And Others – Journal of Experimental Child Psychology, 1975
This experiment (involving kindergarteners and fourth graders) examined the development of the ability to encode, store, and retrieve verbally-or visually-presented material when the modality of the test stimulus was varied. (JMB)

Peer reviewedGross, Thomas F. – Developmental Psychology, 1977
To determine if the modality in which children represent information in memory influences the process by which problems are solved, problem-solving strategy of deaf and hearing 10-year-old children was compared on a concept-discovery task. (JMB)

In order to determine whether there are developmental differences in the handling of the modality attribute 32 children from each of grades two and six and 32 college students were presented with a video-taped mixed-modality list of 32 first grade words. Subjects were asked to recall the words, to identify the presentation modality of each word on…

Peer reviewedConroy, Robert L.; Weener, Paul – Journal of Experimental Child Psychology, 1976
Analogous auditory and visual central-incidental learning tasks were administered to 24 second-, fourth-, and sixth-grade and college-age subjects to study the effects of modality of presentation on memory for central and incidental stimulus materials. (Author/SB)

Corsale, Kathleen – 1974
The purpose of this study was to determine whether children as young as second-graders could encode categorically within an abstract evaluative dimension. The study uses mode of stimulus presentation (auditory or visual) as an independent variable. The subjects were 40 white middle class children from grades 2, 4, and 6, who were randomly assigned…
