During the past two decades, a renewed interest in children's
cognitive devel opment has stimulated numerous research activities
that have been summarized in hundreds of books. In our view, the
field of memory development provides a particularly nice example of
the progress that has been made so far. Since John Flavell's
landmark symposium on "What Is Memory Development the Development
of?" in 1971, the question of what develops has been addressed in
different ways, yielding a rather complex pattern of findings. A
closer look at current research outcomes reveals that ways of
describing and explaining de velopmental changes in memory
performance have changed considerably during the past 20 years.
That is, while individual differences in the use of cognitive
strategies were conceived of as the most important predictors of
individual dif ferences in memory performance in the 1970s, the
crucial role of knowledge has been demonstrated in research
conducted in the 1980s. More recent studies have repeatedly
emphasized that neither changes in strategies nor knowledge alone
is sufficient to explain general patterns of memory development:
Here the claim is that strategies ahd different forms of knowledge
(e. g. , world knowl edge, domain knowledge, or metacognitive
knowledge) interact in rather com plex ways to achieve successful
memory performance. We believe that this claim can be generalized
to different fields dealing with intelligent information
processing.
