abstract = {Prospective memory (PM) is essential in the everyday activities of children because it
involves remembering intentions for the future, such as doing their homework or bringing written
parental permissions to school. Developmental studies have shown increases in PM performance
throughout childhood, but the specific processes underlying this development are still under debate.
In the present study, event-related potentials were used to examine whether the focality of the
PM task is related to the PM increments by testing two groups of children (first and last cycle of
primary school) and assessing differences in N300 (cue detection), frontal positivity (switching),
parietal positivity (retrieval of the intention) and frontal slow waves (monitoring of the retrieved
intention). The results showed significant differences in focality in the group of older children but
no differences in any of the components for their younger counterparts. In addition, the differences
between prospective and ongoing trials were smaller for younger than older children. These findings
suggest that the ability to adjust attentional strategies, monitor, switch and retrieve the intention
develops across childhood and affects PM performance in attentionally demanding conditions.},
