The study of long-term and short-term memory has along tradition in psychology and led to thedevelopment of theories of cognition and memory.While many aspects of these two memory systems havebeen investigated in adults as well as children, theemergence and development of visual short-term memoryhas received relatively little attention in earlychildhood research. This book presents two studiesthat examined the storage capacity of visualshort-term memory during early infancy as well as thetype of information that is represented in thistemporary store. Two storage hypotheses (object-basedand feature-based) were tested for their ability todescribe the nature of infants' objectrepresentations. The discussion focuses on theobserved developmental changes in the amount ofinformation infants can hold in visual short-termmemory and the suitability of the object-based andfeature-based storage hypotheses in describinginfants' short-term object percepts. The presentresearch should be of interest not only toresearchers working with infants but also to thoseinvestigating visual short-term memory in adults andverbal children.
