It’s all about location, location, location: children’s memory for the “where” of personally experienced events
Open accessAbstract
Episodic memory is defined as the ability to recall specific past events located in a particular time and place. Over the preschool and into the school years, there are clear developmental changes in memory for when events took place. In contrast, little is known about developmental changes in memory for where events were experienced. In the current research, we tested 4-, 6-, and 8-year-old children's memories for specific laboratory events, each of which was experienced in a unique location. We also tested the children's memories for the conjunction of the events and their locations. Age-related differences were observed in all three types of memory (event, location, and conjunction of event and location), with the most pronounced differences being in memory for conjunctions of events and their locations. The results have implications for our understanding of the development of episodic memory, including suggestions of protracted development of the ability to contextualize events in their spatial locations.

Memories from the infantile amnesia period may be fragmented or incomplete, with references to spatial context especially likely to be missing.
“memories from this period may be fragmented or incomplete—references to spatial context are especially likely to be missing (127) as these rely on maturation of the hippocampus.”
From The Stress Acceleration Hypothesis of Nightmares (2017) · cites this paper as [127]
The Discussion (page unavailable) reports that four-year-olds make few spontaneous references to place and may have difficulty re-creating an event’s spatial context. It also describes prolonged development of a memory network involving the hippocampus. The paper does not establish that memories from the childhood-amnesia period are generally fragmented or incomplete, or that hippocampal maturation causes spatial references to be missing.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
