Investigação da Memória no Modelo das Inteligências Múltiplas

Considering that memory is a cognitive skill essencial to human cognition, this study aimed to investigate two types of memory, checking how the performance changes as a function of age and sex. The research involved 90 participants (48F and 42M), with ages ranging between 07 and 60 years (M=25.67, SD=16.14) who answered two subtests belonging to Woodcock Johnson III battery (Wechsler & Schelin, 2006): Visual Auditive Learning and Visual Auditive Learning delay. The results showed that women had fewer errors than men, the same occurred with participants aged between 18 and 25 years, although the differences were not significant. Relation between longterm memory and short-term memory (r = 0.752, p ≤ 0.001) indicated that, in this sample, those who perform well
