Korean culture involves fewer parent-child interactions focused on narrating experiences researchers predicted korean kids would have later first memories than. Americans predicted firstborns with more attention develop narrative skills earlier and therefore retain earlier first memories girls tend to have more verbal interactions with parents so are predicted to have earlier first memories. North american older children report earlier memories than chinese older children, suggesting the effects of cultural differences do not arise from changes to early memories in adulthood. Attention as an active exploratory system a full attentional skill set requires the ability to notice novel information, to be vigilant for particular patterns, and to develop strategies for allocating attention in an optimal way.
