Oakhill, Jane
British Journal of Psychology, v73 n1 p13-20 Feb 1982

Used a recognition-memory task to probe constructive memory processes in two groups differentiated by reading comprehension. Results indicated the tendency to construct meanings was greater in children who scored higher on reading comprehension. (Author)
