The Effect of Memory Trace Strength on Suggestibility.
Pezdek, Kathy; Roe, Chantal
Journal of Experimental Child Psychology, v60 n1 p116-28 Aug 1995
Examined the conditions under which children's memory is resistant to suggestibility versus vulnerable to suggestibility. Results suggest that children have more accurate memory for an event that occurred to them frequently, and that they are less vulnerable to suggestive influences such as biased interviewing procedures than they would be for an event that occurred only a single time.
