Commentary on the scientific rigor of Sen and Gredebäck's simulation
The operant mobile paradigm has been used to systematically characterize infant memory.In their review of the mobile literature, Sen and Gredebäck (2022) confirmed the scientific rigor of the existing procedure and found no evidence of biases in terms of p-hacking, reporting errors, or the "stopping" rule.However, based on simulation analyses they claimed that research using this paradigm "has been contaminated by methodological artifacts due to …
The effects of reward on children’s Stroop performance
The effects of rewards on executive function (EF) reflect bidirectional interactions among motivational and executive systems that vary with age and temperament. However, methodological limitations hinder understanding of the precise influences of incentives on early EF, including the role of reward sensitivity. In this within-subjects study, ninety-three 3.5- to 5-year-olds (42 girls; 22% Hispanic; 78% White) residing in the United States comple…

The infant EEG mu rhythm
Electroencephalogram and heart rate measures of working memory at 5 and 10 months of age
We recorded electroencephalogram (EEG; 6-9 Hz) and heart rate (HR) from infants at 5 and 10 months of age during baseline and performance on the looking A-not-B task of infant working memory (WM). Longitudinal baseline-to-task comparisons revealed WM-related increases in EEG power (all electrodes) and EEG coherence (medial frontal-occipital electrode pairs) at both ages. WM-related decreases in HR were only present at 5 months, and WM-related inc…
Developmental progression of looking and reaching performance on the A-not-B task
From a neuropsychological perspective, the cognitive skills of working memory, inhibition, and attention and the maturation of the frontal lobe are requisites for successful A-not-B performance on both the looking and reaching versions of the task. This study used a longitudinal design to examine the developmental progression of infants' performance on the looking and reaching versions of the A-not-B task. Twenty infants were tested on both versi…
Multiple memory systems are unnecessary to account for infant memory development
How the memory of adults evolves from the memory abilities of infants is a central problem in cognitive development. The popular solution holds that the multiple memory systems of adults mature at different rates during infancy. The early-maturing system (implicit or nondeclarative memory) functions automatically from birth, whereas the late-maturing system (explicit or declarative memory) functions intentionally, with awareness, from late in the…
