The present study was designed to examine recall and rehearsal in short-term memory among children with insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (IDDM). Children with onset of IDDM before age 5 years, children with onset after 5 years, and children without IDDM were administered a measure of short-term memory that provides information about rehearsal as well as level of recall. Children with later onset of diabetes and children without IDDM were expected to recall more words and use more effective rehearsal strategies than children with early onset of diabetes. Results indicate that children diagnosed with IDDM early in life used similar rehearsal strategies but recalled fewer words than children with later onset of diabetes and children without IDDM. In addition, results provide evidence that children who are in poor control of their diabetes did not use strategies designed to increase recall as often, or as well as, children in better control of their diabetes.
本研究旨在检验胰岛素依赖型糖尿病(IDDM)患儿短期记忆中的回忆和复述情况。选取5岁前发病的IDDM患儿、5岁后发病的患儿以及非IDDM患儿,对他们进行一项短期记忆测试,该测试可提供有关复述及回忆水平的信息。预计糖尿病发病较晚的患儿及非IDDM患儿比糖尿病发病较早的患儿能回忆起更多单词,并使用更有效的复述策略。结果表明,幼年时被诊断为IDDM的患儿使用的复述策略相似,但比起糖尿病发病较晚的患儿及非IDDM患儿,他们回忆起的单词较少。此外,结果还证明,糖尿病控制不佳的患儿不像糖尿病控制较好的患儿那样频繁或有效地使用旨在提高回忆的策略。
