Experimental Manipulation of the Recall of Narrative Materials by Five-Year-Olds.
Travis, LeRoy D.; White, William B.
Alberta Journal of Educational Research, v25 n3 p137-46 Sep 1979
Two studies utilized different conditions under which kindergarten children encountered the same narrative material and were tested for recall at 30 seconds and one week after the encounters. Children who enacted the story while hearing it significantly recalled more narrative content and implicit and explicit information. (DS)
