Dissociation between Features and Feature Relations in Infant Memory: Effects of Memory Load.
Bhatt, Ramesh S.; Rovee-Collier, Carolyn
Journal of Experimental Child Psychology, v67 n1 p69-89 Oct 1997
Four experiments examined effects of the number of features and feature relations on learning and long-term memory in 3-month olds. Findings suggested that memory load size selectively constrained infants' long-term memory for relational information, suggesting that in infants, features and relations are psychologically distinct and that memory organization parallels perceptual processing organization.
