The development of memoryS E Gathercole
Department of Psychology, University of Bristol, U K
J Child Psychol Psychiatry 39:3-27. 1998..Beyond about 7 years of age, however, memory function appears adult-like in organisation and strategies, and shows only a gradual quantitative improvement through to early adolescence...- Working memory deficits in children with low achievements in the national curriculum at 7 years of ageS E Gathercole
Department of Experimental Psychology, University of Bristol, UK
Br J Educ Psychol 70:177-94. 2000..Close links between children's capacities to store and manipulate information over brief periods have been found with achievements on standardised measures of vocabulary, language comprehension, reading, and mathematics... - Phonotactic influences on short-term memoryS E Gathercole
Department of Psychology, University of Bristol, England
J Exp Psychol Learn Mem Cogn 25:84-95. 1999..These findings indicate that decayed memory traces in phonological short-term memory can be reconstructed using either lexical or phonotactic knowledge... - Verbal and visuospatial short-term memory in children: evidence for common and distinct mechanismsS J Pickering
University of Bristol, England
Mem Cognit 26:1117-30. 1998..These results appear to reflect the application of common processes specialized for the extraction of serial order information from the phonological and visuospatial components of short-term memory... - Dissociable lexical and phonological influences on serial recognition and serial recallS E Gathercole
Centre for the Study of Memory and Learning, Department of Psychology, University of Bristol, 8 Woodland Road, Bristol BS8 1TN, U K Sue
Q J Exp Psychol A 54:1-30. 2001..It is proposed that the lexicality effect originates in the redintegration of item information just prior to recall, and that this process is largely bypassed in serial recognition... - Language-specific knowledge and short-term memory in bilingual and non-bilingual childrenA S Thorn
Department of Psychology, University of Bristol
Q J Exp Psychol A 52:303-24. 1999..The findings indicate that phonological short-term memory is not a language-independent system but, rather, functions in a highly language-specific way... - Short-term memory and language outcomes after extreme prematurity at birthJ Briscoe
University of Bristol, England
J Speech Lang Hear Res 41:654-66. 1998..The findings indicate that preterm birth and associated hazards may constitute a significant risk factor for specific language impairment in a sizable minority of children... - Development of memory for pattern and path: further evidence for the fractionation of visuo-spatial memoryS J Pickering
Centre for Study of Memory and Learning, University of Bristol, Department of Experimental Psychology, 8 Woodland Road, Bristol BS8 1TN, UK
Q J Exp Psychol A 54:397-420. 2001..No evidence to support this notion was found, and it is therefore proposed that static and dynamic visuo-spatial information is maintained in working memory by separable subcomponents of the VSSP... - Language differences in verbal short-term memory do not exclusively originate in the process of subvocal rehearsalA S Thorn
Department of Experimental Psychology, University of Bristol, United Kingdom
Psychon Bull Rev 8:357-64. 2001..It is suggested that one source of language-specific variation might relate to the use of long-term knowledge to support short-term memory performance... - Everyday memory and cognitive ability in children born very prematurelyJ Briscoe
Department of Experimental Psychology, University of Bristol, UK
J Child Psychol Psychiatry 42:749-54. 2001..This suggests an increased risk of everyday memory difficulties in populations of preterm children that may be enhanced in further studies by sampling children with greater risk of hypoxic insult...
