(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2012)
Older adults show an associative deficit in episodic memory compared to younger adults. Previous research suggests two underlying brain areas, the frontal lobe (FL) and the medial temporal--hippocampal area (MTL/H), as ...
The role of reduced working memory resources in the associative deficit of older adults
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2012)
Previous research indicates that older adults show problems with remembering associations compared to young adults, yet they remember single pieces of information about as well as young adults do (see Naveh-Benjamin, 2000). ...
Assessing the associative deficit of older adults in long-term and short-term/working memory
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2011)
Older adults exhibit a deficit in associative long-term memory relative to younger adults. However the associative deficit of older adults is less apparent in short-term memory or working memory; the literature is inconclusive ...
Age differences in memory for names : the effect of pre-learned semantic associations
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2010)
The present experiments investigated whether participants could use basic semantic information about a person (i.e., a "mediator"), such as an occupation, to help link that person's name to his or her face. In each of three ...
