Age-Related Deficits in Conjunctive Representation of Complex Objects
Although some evidence is consistent with the notion that distinct cortical systems support memory and perception, mounting evidence supports a representational-hierarchical view of cognition, which posits that distinctions lie in simple feature representations versus more complex conjunctive representations of many stimulus features simultaneously. Thus, typical memory tasks engage different r...
متن کاملRunning head: AGE-RELATED DEFICITS IN GUIDED SEARCH Age-Related Deficits in Guided Search Using Cues
The ability of young and older adults to engage in guided conjunction search was tested in two experiments. In the cued condition, a picture of the target was presented before the search. In the non-cued condition, there was no picture of the target. In Experiment 1, the cue was presented for 200 ms; the magnitude of the cuing effect (non-cued RT – cued RT) was greater for the young than for th...
متن کاملHow age-related strategy switching deficits affect wayfinding in complex environments.
Although most research on navigation in aging focuses on allocentric processing deficits, impaired strategy switching may also contribute to navigational decline. Using a specifically designed task involving navigating a town-like virtual environment, we assessed the ability of young and old participants to switch from following learned routes to finding novel shortcuts. We found large age diff...
متن کاملComplex feature analysis of center of pressure signal for age-related subject classification
Purpose: The aim of this study was to characterize prolonged standing and its effect on postural control in elderly individuals in comparison to adults.Materials and Methods: The elderly individuals’ behavior during standing and how demanding such a task is for them, is still unknown. We recorded the center of pressure (COP) position of 12 elder and 15 young participants while they were standin...
متن کاملAge-related deficits in component processes of working memory.
Working memory deficits in normal aging have been well documented, and studies suggest that high memory load plus the presence of distraction negatively impacts successful memory performance to a greater degree in older individuals. However, characterization of the component processes that are impaired by these task manipulations is not clear. In this behavioral study, younger and older subject...
