Memory for nonadjacent dependencies in the first year of life and its relation to sleep
Grammar learning requires memory for temporally organised, rule-based patterns in speech. Here, the authors use event-related potentials to show that 6 to 8 month-old infants can form memory of dependencies between nonadjacent elements in sentences of an unknown language, regardless of whether they...

| description | Grammar learning requires memory for temporally organised, rule-based patterns in speech. Here, the authors use event-related potentials to show that 6 to 8 month-old infants can form memory of dependencies between nonadjacent elements in sentences of an unknown language, regardless of whether they nap or stay awake after encoding. |
