Spanish term or phrase: límite de la amnesia infantil
I can find no satisfactory way to phrase this. I am assuming it refers to the point in time from which things are recalled as opposed to forgotten. I only have access to the abstract of the cited article, which provides no help. This is the context:


De hecho, existen estudios que señalan que los niños de 2-3 años de edad ya son capaces de hablar sobre eventos pasados (e.g., Cleveland & Reese, 2008; Fivush & Bauer, 2010; Van Abbema & Bauer, 2005), incluso de sucesos ocurridos cuando eran un año más jóvenes (e.g., Mullally & Maguire, 2014; Tustin & Hayne, 2010). Peterson, Warren and Short (2011) señalan que el *** límite de la amnesia infantil *** se ve modificado con la edad ya que los estudios muestran que la edad de los primeros recuerdos recordados por niños más mayores es mayor que la edad de los primeros recuerdos recordados por niños más jóvenes

Notes to answerer
Asker: Thanks, Simon, should have got this myself. I'd stupidly googled "boundary of amnesia" without "childhood " or "infantile" and was not satisfied with the results.

agree  franglish: boundary, rather than end, as it's flexible.

agree  Robert Carter: Boundary is clearer in this case as it's marking a point; the "end" can also refer to the "offset".
