My research is concerned with the representation of information in memory and thought and the way concepts are represented in memory. I am especially concerned with the organization of spatial and temporal information. My research also is concerned with the development of those aspects of representation during childhood in various children. Finally, I also study language development, especially as it relates to other aspects of cognitive development. (Cognition and Communication and Developmental Psychology)
