Search Set Access Problems in Retrieving Episodic Information from Memory in Children and Adults.
Ackerman, Brian P.
Journal of Experimental Child Psychology, v45 n2 p234-61 Apr 1988
Five experiments examined the cued recall of the last target words of primarily four-word (Bus-Airplane-Car-Train) category stimuli by children and adults. Focused on problems of gaining access to episodic search sets in recall. Results suggested that access to search set is more problematic for children than for adults. (RWB)
