Analogous auditory and visual central-incidental learning tasks were administered to 24 students from each of the second, fourth, and sixth grades. The visual tasks served as another modification of Magens central-incidental learning paradigm, with the interpretation that focal attention processes continue to develop until the age of 12 or 13 years. The auditory tasks were administat;Led to the same students iu order to extend this interpretation to auditory selective attention processes and to assess the feasibility of a modality independent central process for allocating and maintaining attention.

Auditory incidental learning increases with age for boys but not for girls. These results suggest that auditory selective attention processes develop tore slowly than visual selective attention processes, especially for boys.
