Young Children's Knowledge of the Relative Difficulty of Recognition and Recall Memory Tasks.
Speer, James Ramsey; Flavell, John H.
Developmental Psychology, v15 n2 p214-17 Mar 1979
Kindergarten and first-grade children were told stories about twins who were given recognition and recall tasks and were asked to judge which twin remembered more of identical sets of items. Results showed that a number of the children gave clear evidence that they believed recognition tasks to be easier than recall tasks. (JMB)
