Resumen:
The purpose of this study is to analyze the role of working memory and sustained attention in the comprehension of narratives in 5 and 6-year-old children. Results showed that age has an effect on the comprehension of general information and the ability to generate inferences, but this effect is mediated, in part, by a child´s ability to sustain attention on the narration and to temporarily store the information received while listening to it.
