Abstract
This paper explores the cognitive mechanisms of prospective memory in children with hearing impairment through two studies. Study 1, based on questionnaire results, indicates that children with hearing impairment score higher on prospective memory tasks compared to typically developing children. Study 2, derived from experimental outcomes, reveals that children with hearing impairment perform worse on both event-based and time-based prospective memory tasks than their typical hearing peers, with time-based prospective memory showing a more pronounced deficit. The findings suggest that children with hearing impairment have weaker prospective memory abilities than typically developing children, and impairments in executive function may be a significant contributing factor to the failures in prospective memory among children with hearing impairment.
期刊介绍:
Psychological Research/Psychologische Forschung publishes articles that contribute to a basic understanding of human perception, attention, memory, and action. The Journal is devoted to the dissemination of knowledge based on firm experimental ground, but not to particular approaches or schools of thought. Theoretical and historical papers are welcome to the extent that they serve this general purpose; papers of an applied nature are acceptable if they contribute to basic understanding or serve to bridge the often felt gap between basic and applied research in the field covered by the Journal.
