“…Most measures of visual memory are heavily confounded with spatial ability (e.g., Larrabee & Crook, 1995). Thus tests such as the Visual Reproduction subtest of the Wechsler Memory ScaleRevised (Wechsler, 1987) share more variance with Block Design and other subtests of the Performance subscale than they do with other memory tasks.…”
This study aimed to investigate which abilities are measured by the Austin Maze. One hundred and eight university students were administered a battery of eight neuropsychological tests including,

“…Studies with adults have established that memory is a multi-dimensional process. There is general agreement regarding the importance of distinguishing between verbal and visual learning and memory processes (Erickson & Scott, 1977;Kapur, 1988;Larrabee & Crook, 1995). This same distinction is important in children.…”

“…During the past 15 years, there has been extensive development of measures of verbal and visual memory for adults (Larrabee & Crook, 1995). However, tests of learning and memory for children have appeared only recently (Reynolds & Bigler, 1994;Sheslow & Adams, 1990).…”
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
