Abstract
Temporal cognition was assessed via verbal (Months Relative Order; Time Labeling) and nonverbal tasks (Draw Lifecycle of a Tree; Character Intentions) in 6- to 10-year-olds (N=66). Principal components analysis indicated significant shared variance with one underlying component, predicted by language abilities over age, nonverbal intelligence, and working memory.
