Acting Out the Details of a Pediatric Check-up: The Impact of Interview Condition and Behavioral Style on Children's Memory Reports.
Greenhoot, Andrea Follmer; Ornstein, Peter A.; Gordon, Betty N.; Baker-Ward, Lynne
Child Development, v70 n2 p363-80 Mar-Apr 1999
Compared 3- and 5-year olds' recall of a pediatric examination in verbal versus enactment interviews. Found that children in the enactment condition provided more spontaneous, elaborate reports than did children in verbal interview. Enactment produced increased errors by 3-year olds one week after examination, by both age groups after six weeks. Age and interview condition effects were moderated by children's behavioral characteristics. (Author/KB)
