Electrophysiological Correlates of Infant Recognition Memory.
Nelson, Charles A.; Salapatek, Philip
Child Development, v57 n6 p1483-97 Dec 1986
When six-month-old infants are preexposed to one stimulus, they are later able to remember that stimulus and distinguish it from a previously unseen, novel stimulus; degree of experience with one stimulus and the magnitude of novelty effect positively covary. Neurological substrates of infants' memory skills are described. (RH)
