The purpose of this review is to discuss an additional factor that changes across childhood through adolescence and affects motor performance: the ability to process information, ie, operation of the memory system. Substantial evidence indicates that a change in information processing accounts for a significant proportion of the variance in improved performance (both verbal and motor) associated with development.Of special interest is the fact that strategies and control processes for handling information become more effective as children mature (Chi, 1976; Ornstein, 1978; Ornstein & Naus, 1978). Considerable evidence will be presented that efficiency in using the following processes increases with age: development of task specific strategies; appropriate application of strategies; and the use of the general strategies (referred to hereafter as control processes) of rehearsal (active practice), naming (labeling), grouping (chunking), and coding (encoding, recoding). That the more efficient use of these strategies and control processes will affect motor performance seems apparent but will be elaborated upon later in this paper. In addition, children are more limited than adults in the contents of long-term memory (LTM). The child’s knowledge base in LTM differs from adults in three ways (Chi, 1976): the absence of a recognizable chunk, the size of the chunk, and the
