Putting the Horse before the Cart: The Use of Temporal Order in Recall of Events by One-Year-Old Children.

Bauer, Patricia J.; Mandler, Jean M.

Developmental Psychology, v28 n3 p441-52 May 1992

In an experiment, 13.5-month-old children were tested on 2- and 3-act sequences depicting familiar and novel events. Using elicited imitation, they reliably recalled the sequences in the correct temporal order. In a second experiment, 11.5 month olds accurately recalled 2-act sequences depicting familiar and novel events. (BC)
