What Infant Memory Tells Us about Infantile Amnesia: Long-Term Recall and Deferred Imitation.
Meltzoff, Andrew N.
Journal of Experimental Child Psychology, v59 n3 p497-515 Jun 1995
Long-term recall memory was assessed in 14- and 16 month-olds using a nonverbal method requiring subjects to reenact a past event from memory. The results demonstrated significant deferred imitation after delays of two and four months, and that the toddlers retained and imitated multiple acts. (MDM)
