Abstract: Objective To investigate the development of preschoolers' Event-based Prospective memory(EBPM),three components of executive function(EF)(working memory,inhibitory control,cognitive flexibility),and their relationship. Method Laboratory experiment method was used to test EBPM and EF of preschooler. Results There were obvious age effects in preschoolers' EBPM, 6 years old children perform better than 5 years old,and they all better than 4 years old.There were also obvious age effects in three components of EF,6 years old children all perform better than 4 years old.Hierarchical regression analyses indicated that working memory was a power predict of preschoolers EBPM beyond age variables. Conclusion With the increase of age,achievements are gradually raising in both preschoolers' EBPM and EF.Working memory is a powerful predict of preschoolers EBPM.

摘要： 目的 考察学龄前儿童事件性前瞻记忆和执行功能三成分(工作记忆、抑制控制、认知灵活性)的发展水平及两者的关系。方法 采用实验法对4~6岁儿童的事件性前瞻记忆和执行功能的三成分进行测量。结果 三个年龄组被试事件性前瞻记忆成绩差异有统计学意义,6岁组优于5岁组,且两组均好于4岁组;三个年龄组被试执行功能三成分成绩差异均有统计学意义,且6岁组均优于4岁组。分层回归分析发现,工作记忆对事件性前瞻记忆有显著的预测作用。结论 随着年龄增长,学龄前儿童事件性前瞻记忆和执行功能均呈逐渐提高的发展趋势;工作记忆显著影响学龄前儿童事件性前瞻记忆的发展。
