Developmental Differences in Episodic Retrieval: The Role of Differences in Concept Representations in Semantic Memory.
Ackerman, Brian P.
Developmental Psychology, v23 n1 p31-38 Jan 1987
Developmental differences in the relative salience of features in concept representations in semantic memory and their contributions to differences in cued recall were examined in two experiments. Subjects were second graders, fifth graders, and college students. Results showed that recall varied with feature salience, with salience greatest for defining features. (Author/RH)
