Memory Demands and the Development of Young Children's Memory.
Ratner, Hilary Horn
Child Development, v55 n6 p2173-91 Dec 1984
Investigates the nature of and changes in early memory demands and assesses the relationship between memory demands and memory performance among 10 children 30 and 42 months old and their mothers. Results suggested that mothers' memory demands have an impact on children's memory performance--providing at least partial support for Vygotsky's sociohistorical model of memory development.
