相关研究表明，即时语音记忆，如重复非单词的能力，在不同的长度来衡量，与幼儿的词汇水平。本研究通过测试重复成绩高和低的儿童对不熟悉的玩具动物标签的学习能力，探讨语音记忆和词汇习得之间是否存在因果关系。低重复率的孩子在学习语音上不熟悉的名字，如“Pimas”的玩具时被发现较慢，尽管在学习熟悉的名字，如“Thomas”的速度上没有差异。一天后，两组人对最初学习的标签的记忆也有所不同。这些结果表明，幼儿的即时记忆过程直接参与了新词汇的学习。暂时语音记忆对词汇习得的贡献的可能性质进行了讨论。
Correlational studies have suggested that immediate phonological memory, as measured by the capacity to repeat non-words varying in length, is associated with level of vocabulary in young children. The present study explores the possibility of a casual relationship between phonological memory and vocabulary acquisition by testing the abilities of children high and low in repetition performance to learn labels for unfamiliar toy animals. The low repetition children were found to be slower at learning phonologically unfamiliar names such as ''Pimas'' for the toys, although there were no differences in learning speed for familiar names such as ''Thomas''. The two groups also differed one day later in their retention of the labels that had initially been learned. These results suggest that immediate memory processes are directly involved in the learning of new vocabulary items in young children. The possible nature of the contribution of temporary phonological memory to vocabulary acquisition is discussed.
