Memory and Speed: Their Role in the Relation of Infant Information Processing to Later IQ.

Rose, Susan A.; Feldman, Judith F.

Child Development, v68 n4 p630-41 Aug 1997

Studied the extent to which memory and processing speed accounted for relations between infant information processing and childhood IQ. Found that the relationship of 7-month visual recognition memory and 1-year cross-modal transfer to 11-year IQ were reduced when statistically controlled for factors derived from these measures, suggesting that speed and memory underlie some of infant-childhood continuities in cognition.
