| Abstract | The results of previous studies examining the relationship between source monitoring and working memory in young children are not consistent. One of the reasons for this inconsistency is concerning the modalities of information with which working memory tasks deal. The present study investigated how young children’s verbal and visuospatial working memory capacity would be related to respective source-monitoring tasks with visually or verbally presented stimuli. Children aged four (n = 21) and five years (n = 21) participated in this study. They completed two verbal working memory tasks, namely, the backward digit span and listening span tests; and two visuospatial working memory tasks, namely, a comparative line test and a rotated figure test. In the source-monitoring task, first, an adult man and an adult woman read two different picture books to groups of children. Subsequently, they read short sentences aloud and showed pictures to the children. Each child then performed recognition tests for the sentences and the pictures, and required to decide on the appropriate source. Hierarchical multiple regression analyses revealed the following results: The verbal working memory task (i.e., the backward digit span) was a significant factor explaining performance on the verbal source-monitoring task, whereas the visuospatial working memory task (i.e., a rotated figure test) explained the performance on the visual source-monitoring task. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
