A specificity principle of memory : evidence from aging and associate memory
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2019)
to induce forgetting, and older adults may be impaired in their ability to either encode (e.g., Craik & Byrd, 1982) or retrieve specific information (Craik, 2006; Luo & Craik, 2009). Guided by this principle, we endeavored to determine whether ubiquitous age...
Assessing the role of pair familiarity in the associative deficit of older adults
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2009)
adults to capitalize on their intact familiarity in order to accurately remember pairings of information. Experiments 1 and 2 investigated this by unitizing two components of a pair such that the color information enables certain pairings to appear as one...
Who did what?: age-related differences in memory for people and their actions
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2006)
what, was then assessed in recognition tests. Different versions of the tests were completed on the following day.Experiment 1 revealed an associative deficit of older adults under intentional, but not incidental, learning instructions. In Experiment 2...
Maintenance of relational bindings: working memory or long-term memory?
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2022)
-term interval in which interstimulus interval was also increased to maintain temporal distinctiveness of the items. In Experiment 2 we used a similar procedure but attempted to increase serial position effects by testing binding between word and serial position...
Use of multimodal stimuli to facilitate associative memory in older adults
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2019)
providing evidence of an audiovisual benefit in the associative test under degradation across age groups. Experiment 2 failed to replicate these results, though there is some evidence that the prolonged stimuli degradation in the study phase, resulting from...
Spill-over of memory effect in younger and older adults : can emotional information become associated with neutral episodic details
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2018)
-name associations. Using intentional and incidental instructions to encode face-name associations, in Experiment 2 and 3, respectively, participants' memory for whether names, shown with different facial expressions, can trigger emotional content of a study episode...
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 experiments, older...
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 components into a cohesive unit...
