Recent studies have largely rejected the long-held thinking that babies cannot encode information that forms the foundation of memories. For instance, in one experiment involving 2- and 3-month-old infants, the babies' legs were attached by a ribbon to a mobile, a toy that hung above the baby's bed.
By kicking their legs, the babies learned that the motion caused the mobile to move. Later, placed under the same mobile without the ribbon, the infants remembered to kick their legs. When (1) the same experiment was performed with 6-month-olds, they picked up the kicking relationship much more quickly, indicating that their encoding ability must develop gradually with time instead of in one significant burst around 3 years old.

ご質問の語句を含む英文、their encoding ability must develop gradually with time instead of in one significant burst around 3 years old. の意味は、「彼らの記憶能力は、3歳になった辺りで、一つの有意な発出というよりも、(時間をかけて)ゆっくりと、発達するに違いない」ということで、in one significant burst とは、直訳すると、「一回の顕著な爆発で」という意味になります。
