Abstract: Children aged 10-14 years tried to identify and remember words presented visually with a backward mask. The mask onset asynchrony (MOA) was either 100 or 300 msec, while the asynchrony between successive words (ABW) was content at 500 msec. On different task, the children recalled freely or serially, recognized by a making a rapid forced-choice response or simply named earlier. Comparison were made across tasks, and correlations were examined across studied in an effort to identify cognitive process that underlie individual and developmental difference in rapid remembering. The analyses included traditional tests of age difference and serial position curves as well as new Markov models of repeated free recall. The results were parsimoniously associative storage.
