A Priming Study of Developmental Changes in the Associative Strength of Class Relations.
Kareev, Yaakov
Child Development, v53 n4 p1038-45 Aug 1982
Tests the hypothesis that semantic memory changes with age such that concepts become more strongly associated with their superordinate classes than with their exemplars. The Stroop color-naming technique was employed with 48 children 8 through 12 years of age to measure the degree of semantic activation between concepts in memory. (Author)
