Howard, Lauren H.; Riggins, Tracy; Woodward, Amanda L. – Child Development, 2020
Little is known about the influence of social context on children's event memory. Across four studies, we examined whether learning that could occur in the absence of a person was more robust when a person was present. Three-year-old children (N = 125) viewed sequential events that either included or excluded an acting agent. In Experiment 1,…
