Who did what?: age-related differences in memory for people and their actions
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2006)
The associative-deficit hypothesis (ADH), proposed by Naveh-Benjamin (2000), holds that the decline in episodic memory that accompanies aging is at least partially due to an inability to bind single units of information ...
Decreases in working memory capacity for sentence stimuli with adult aging
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2007)
Previous studies have found that older adults have poorer immediate recall for language. Older adults may recall fewer chunks from working memory, or may have difficulty binding words or sentences together to form multi-unit ...
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 ...
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 ...
Assessing the role of pair familiarity in the associative deficit of older adults
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2009)
While aging causes relatively minor impairment in recognition memory for components, older adults' ability to remember associations between components is typically significantly compromised, relative to that of younger ...
The effect of emotional facial expressions on item and associative memory in younger and older adults
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2015)
[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT REQUEST OF AUTHOR.] Research suggests that emotional stimuli can modulate item and associative memory performance. While enhancing the memory for individual item components, ...
The differential effects of presentation rate and retention interval on memory for items and associations in younger adults : a simulation of an age-related associative deficit
(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 ...
Attempts to reduce the high false alarm rate in older adults' associative memory
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2014)
Whereas memory for individual items stays relatively intact with age, associative memory, (e.g., memory for pairs of items), seems to show a noticeable decline (what is known as older adults� associative memory deficit). ...
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 ...
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 ...
Use of multimodal stimuli to facilitate associative memory in older adults
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2019)
[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT REQUEST OF AUTHOR.] Research suggests that sensory loss common to older adults is strongly correlated with cognitive decline (Lindenberger & Baltes, 1994; Baltes and ...
The effects of stereotype threat on the associative memory deficit of older adults
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2015)
[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT REQUEST OF AUTHOR.] One of the suggestions made in the literature regarding older adults' episodic memory decline is that it is caused by their reduced ability to bind ...
