Negative Transfer in Children's Recall of Categorized Materials.
Bjorklund, David F.
Journal of Experimental Child Psychology, v26 n2 p299-307 Oct 1978
A negative transfer paradigm was used to assess kindergarten, third-, and sixth-grade children's use of category relations in lists presented for recall. Results showed that negative transfer effects increased with age, with kindergarten children showing no evidence of interference relative to a control group. (Author/MP)
