Persistent difference in short-term memory span between sign and speech: implications for cross-linguistic comparisons.
Short-term memory (STM) is thought to be limited in capacity to about 7 2 items for linguistic materials and 4 1 items for visuospatial information (Baddeley & Logie, 1999; Cowan, 2001).

The present study factorially manipulates whether American Sign Langu...
