Semantic and Surface Codes in the Memory of Deaf Children

Frumkin, Barbara; Anisfeld, Moshe

Cognitive Psychology, 9, 4, 475-93, Oct 77

In three experiments, deaf children, aged 6 years 10 months to 15 years 5 months, were presented with continuous lists of items; for each item, they indicated whether it had appeared before on the list. The findings showed consistently strong semantic effects on word memory of young deaf children. (Author/MV)
