Mentally Retarded and Nonretarded Adults' Memory for Spatial Location.
Nigro, Georgia N.; Roak, Rebecca M.
American Journal of Mental Deficiency, v91 n4 p392-97 Jan 1987
Memory automaticity for spatial location was evaluated with 14 mildly retarded adults and 14 nonretarded adults under two instructional conditions: intentional or incidental. Intention to encode spatial location had no effect on recall for either group and retarded and nonretarded subjects did not differ in recall of spatial location. (Author/DB)
