Acquisition and Transfer of an Integrative Imagery Strategy by Young Children.

Ryan, Ellen Bouchard; And Others

Child Development, v58 n2 p443-52 Apr 1987

The effects of two imagery training procedures on pictograph sentence memory were examined in 66 kindergarten prereaders. Group 1 was taught in four sessions to read the pictographs, then imagine the available toys acting out the sentence meaning. Group 2 received the first two sessions as above followed by two sessions involving a modified version of the pictograph task. (Author/BN)
