Age-effects on associative object-location memory.
Aging is accompanied by an impairment of associative memory. The medial temporal lobe and fronto-striatal network, both involved in associative memory, are known to decline functionally and structurally with age, leading to the so-called associative binding deficit and the resource deficit. Because the MTL and fronto-striatal network interact, they might also be able to support each other. We t...
متن کاملAge effects on associative memory for novel picture pairings
Normal aging is usually accompanied by greater memory decline for associations than for single items. Though associative memory is generally supported by recollection, it has been suggested that familiarity can also contribute to associative memory when stimuli can be unitized and encoded as a single entity. Given that familiarity remains intact during healthy aging, this may be one route to re...
متن کاملSelective influences of age and speed on associative memory.
Data from three studies involving a continuous paired associates task performed by adults of different ages were analyzed in an attempt to identify how processing speed might mediate age-related differences in associative memory. Age differences were found in measures postulated to represent encoding and consolidation processes, but not in a measure presumed to reflect rate of forgetting. It is...
متن کاملAge-Related Changes in Associative Memory
Older adults suffer from many cognitive impairments relative to young adults and one of the most established types of age-related cognitive decline is a reduction in memory performance. Memory for single units of information (item memory) have been shown to be less susceptible to cognitive ageing than memory for associations among units of information (associative memory). An associative defici...
متن کاملEffects of semantic relatedness on age-related associative memory deficits: The role of theta oscillations
Growing evidence suggests that age-related deficits in associative memory are alleviated when the to-be-associated items are semantically related. Here we investigate whether this beneficial effect of semantic relatedness is paralleled by spatio-temporal changes in cortical EEG dynamics during incidental encoding. Young and older adults were presented with faces at a particular spatial location...
