Decreases in working memory capacity for sentence stimuli with adult aging
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2007)
these two hypotheses by presenting participants with 4 types of spoken sentences for immediate free recall, varied by the number and length of chunks per trial: 4 short, simple sentences; 8 such sentences; 4 compound sentences, meaningfully comprised of two...
A specificity principle of memory : evidence from aging and associate memory
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2019)
[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT REQUEST OF AUTHOR.] The ability to remember associations among components of an event lies at the core of episodic memory (Tulving, 1983), and this ability declines with normal aging (Naveh...
Who did what?: age-related differences in memory for people and their actions
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2006)
. In order to extend the ADH to relatively dynamic stimuli, participants in the present experiments viewed a series of brief video clips, each showing a different person performing a different action. Memory for the actions, for the people, and for who did...
Paying attention to binding: is the associative deficit of older adults mediated by reduced attentional resources?
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2005)
One notion put forth to explain age-related, episodic memory problems is the associative-deficit hypothesis, stating that they are due to older adults' decreased binding ability (i.e., their ability to encode separate ...
Maintenance of relational bindings: working memory or long-term memory?
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2022)
hypothesis in which relational bindings are not maintained in WM, but rather pass directly to long-term memory (LTM), even over short spans. In order to test this hypothesis, we performed a series of experiments examining the effects of short-term memory...
Spill-over of memory effect in younger and older adults : can emotional information become associated with neutral episodic details
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2018)
[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT AUTHOR'S REQUEST.] An extensive literature on the influence of emotion on memory asserts that memory for emotional information is remembered better than information lacking emotional content...
Examining the time course under which specific and gist episodic memory representation are established at encoding among young and older adults
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2023)
[EMBARGOED UNTIL 5/1/2024] One of the most pervasive adult age-related declines in episodic memory is in the ability to remember associations between components of an episode, such as between a person and a location where ...
