Selective Remembering During Adolescence.

Bray, Norman W.; And Others

Developmental Psychology, v21 n2 p290-94 Mar 1985

Use of strategies to eliminate interference from irrelevant information in memory was investigated for 11-, 15-, and 18-year-olds. A directed forgetting paradigm was introduced. Results suggest that 11-year-olds use adequate selective remembering strategy, but not selective rehearsal: most 15- and 18-year-olds did. (Author/DST)
