Children's Organization and Recall of Information in Scripted Narratives.
Mistry, Jayanthi J.; Lange, Garrett W.
Child Development, v56 n4 p953-61 Aug 1985
When 60 five-year-old and 48 10-year-old children heard three stories, each containing three target objects from each of three taxonomic categories, younger children received greater benefit than older children from strongly scripted story presentations and from constrained category-cue and script-cue retrieval conditions. Cues and the extent to which stories were scripted were differentially effective. (Author/RH)
