Influence of intonation on auditory sequential memory skills.
This study was designed to investigate the effect of intonation on the auditory sequential memory spans of children normal in language development and those with delay. Analysis indicated that intonation as a cue did not facilitate recall of monosyllabic nouns presented in sequences of two, three, four, and five words. Children with a language delay of six months or longer had spans of one word less than children with no language delay. Neither recall nor the memory span was related to chronological age over the range of 42 and 72 mo. for either group of children.
