Problems with the Knowledge-Based Explanation of Memory and Development.
Peverly, Stephen T.
Review of Educational Research, v61 n1 p71-93 Spr 1991
The claim that knowledge alone accounts for variance of memory and development (MAD) is critiqued. Topics include the movement toward a knowledge-based view of MAD and problems with this approach; data suggesting that domain-independent strategies influence MAD; and evidence for a domain-independent tool of developmental import.
