在这项研究中，我们探讨了学龄前儿童个人叙事结构和连贯性的发展变化是否可能为儿童失忆症提供一些线索。特别是，我们假设早期的记忆可能不会被组织成连贯的叙述，因此变得不容易接近，也不太可能被整合到我们每个人创造的自传式生活故事中。在40、46、58和70个月大时，对学龄前儿童对个人经历事件的叙述进行纵向评估。令人惊讶的是，即使在研究的最小年龄，孩子们也能够讲述相当长的、连贯的故事。但随着时间的推移，他们的叙述会变得更复杂、更连贯、更详细。对重复回忆的同一事件的进一步分析表明，在长时间的延迟中，回忆是稳定的。事实上，有一些证据表明，随着时间的推移，儿童对同一事件的叙述变得更加详细和复杂，尤其是在4到5岁之间。讨论了这些结果对儿童失忆症的影响。(C) 1995学术出版社，Inc。
In this study, we explored whether developmental changes in the structure and coherence of preschoolers' personal narratives might provide some clues about childhood amnesia. In particular, we hypothesized that early memories may not be organized as coherent narratives and would therefore became less accessible and less Likely to be integrated into the autobiographical life story that each of us creates. Preschoolers' narratives about personally experienced events were assessed longitudinally at 40, 46, 58, and 70 months of age. Surprisingly, even at the earliest age studied, children were able to recount reasonably long and coherent narrative. But their narratives become more complex, more coherent, and more detailed over time. Additional analyses on the same events recalled repeatedly indicated that recall was stable over long delays. In fact, there was some evidence that children's narratives about the same event became more elaborate and more complex over time, particularly between the ages of 4 and 5 years. Implications of these results for childhood amnesia are discussed. (C) 1995 Academic Press, Inc.
