摘要:To analyze the effect of reminder type on the development of time-based prospective memory of children,270 (90 each 5-,7-,and 9-year old) participants were randomly divided by age group into three subgroups : selfF- cued reminder,other- cued reminder,and contol groups. Results showed that the performance of time -based prospective memory significantly increased with agc,and the presentation of reminders was effective for improving the performance of timc-based prospective memory. For younger children the presentation of other cued reminder was more effective than self-cued reminder,but for the older children,presentation of self-cued reminder was more effective than other-cued reminder..
