Knowing and Remembering in Young Children - Robyn Fivush - Hardcover

In this third volume in the Emory Cognition Project Series, the contributors share a similar view that memory can no longer be considered a distinct & separate cognitive process isolated from other cognitive processes. Rather, remembering is viewed as a cognitive activity embedded in larger social & cognitive tasks. In this collection of recent research on the development of memory & representation in young children, the contributors focus on ecologically valid methods for studying early memory, particularly in one to five-year-olds. Using naturalistic approaches, the contributors cover such topics as the development of autobiographic memory, event representation & early memory, the social context of remembering, accuracy in children's event memory, individual differences, & the development of representation in young children. Together, the chapters in this volume represent a comprehensive view of the emergence of children's memory in naturalistic contexts.Fivush, Robyn is the author of 'Knowing and Remembering in Young Children - Robyn Fivush - Hardcover' with ISBN 9780521373258 and ISBN 0521373255.
