Development of Preterm and Full-Term Infant Ability on AB, Recall Memory, Transparent Barrier Detour, and Means-End Tasks.
Matthews, Alexandra; And Others
Child Development, v67 n6 p2658-76 Dec 1996
Preterm and full-term infants were assessed on several tasks involving retrieval of a toy. When corrected for age (since conception), but not when compared by chronological age, premature infants tolerated longer delays on AB retrieval tasks than full-term infants. There were no group differences for corrected or chronological age on any other task. (BC)
