title: Reflection-impulsivity and short-term memory in emotionally disturbed children.
abstract: In an investigation of the relationship between the reflection-impulsivity cognitive dimension and short-term memory in emotionally disturbed children, 42 Ss were administered the Matching Familiar Figures Test and the Visual-Aural Digit Span Test. Analysis of covariance indicated that on all memory tasks the reflective Ss were better than the impulsive subjects.
