title: Invalid assumptions and methodological difficulties in early memory research.
abstract: Invalid assumptions in the methodologies of recent early memory studies were noted and discussed. The writers offered several principles that may help future workers to avoid design flaws which may have weakened previous studies. The need for pilot studies appropriate to the population under study was particularly stressed.
