sostituto del ricordo/riempitivo


Explanation:
Credo che qui il senso sia questo. Placeholder è qualcosa che "fa le veci di", "sta per". Come vedi sotto:

In this interaction, the mother provided the child with many elements of the event. Even when the child replied with a memory placeholder or incorrect information, the mother elaborated on what the child said and directed the conversation to different aspects of the event. Although the child did not contribute much new information to the conversation, the mother maintained a cohesive and sequential narrative.
