Inhoud: This research examines whether young children are less suggestible if they monitor the source of acquired information. Events from 2 sources-live and videotaped science demonstrations-were observed by 3- to 4-year-olds (n = 39) and 5- to 6-year-olds (n = 36) in Experiment 1. One half of the children in each age group were administered a source-monitoring (SM) test that required reporting the source of science events. Control group children received recognition questions without source cues. Afterward, all children freely recalled the events and were then asked misleading questions about the source of events. Control 3- to 4-year-olds were less accurate than all other groups in free recall and in response to misleading-detail questions, whereas SM 3- to 4-year-olds' performance was equivalent to that of both groups of 5- to 6-year-olds. Experiment 2 examined one possible reason for the apparent lack of effect of the SM manipulation among the 5- to 6-year-olds: namely, that free recall served as an SM opportunity for them. To test this hypothesis, 5- to 6-year-olds' (n = 38) responses to misleading questions were examined when the free-recall task was omitted from the procedure. The SM group was more accurate than the control group, suggesting that free recall served as an SM task for 5- to 6-year-olds in Experiment 1. These results implicate SM as one factor underlying young children's suggestibility.
