Abstract: This study examined the effect of age and language structure on working memory (WM) performance in three groups of participants (7;0-8;6 9;6-11:00; 19-22 years).The findings suggest that both age and language structure have an impact on WM performance.There was an interaction between these two factors that resulted in differences in performance pattern and error type.The measures of the storage function were influenced by the length of the stimuli, whereas processing efficiency was affected by sentence complexity.
