The Development of Serial Short-Term Memory and the Articulatory Loop Hypothesis.

Cohen, Ronald L.; Heath, Michele

Intelligence, v14 n2 p151-71 Apr-Jun 1990

The working memory hypothesis that the development of span in children is related to increasing proficiency in the use of an articulatory loop was tested in two studies with 120 Canadian children in grades 5 and 6 and 11 and 12. Some support was found for the hypothesis. (SLD)
