TL;DR: La Cour et al. as mentioned in this paper presented an evaluation of the Rivermead Behavioural Memory Test (RBMT), a test battery for illuminating impaired memory function, which has shown to be of benefit where everyday memory functions are estimated.
Abstract: La Cour, P. & Gallagher, K. (1990). Presentation and evaluation of Rivermead Behavioural Memory Test. Nordisk Psykologi, 42, 130–141. The article presents an evaluation of the Rivermead Behavioural Memory Test, a test battery for illuminating impaired memory function. The RBMT has recently been published in Danish together with a short review of its background and contents. Results from 10 examinations where both RBMT and a traditional test battery were applied lead to a discussion regarding the tests merits and shortcomings. The test battery has shown to be of benefit where everyday memory functions are estimated.

TL;DR: In this article, a way-of-life-interview with small children is presented, focusing on efforts made to maintain joint attention to the child's representations of own interactions, and to facilitate the relevant report to the researcher.
Abstract: Until now children have not been looked upon as sufficiently reliable to be included in interview research in social science.

The conclusion is, however, that age doesn’t change the procedures in any essential way, rather pinpoints the challenges met when doing qualitative interviews.
