Age-related deficits in low-level inhibitory motor control.
Inhibitory control functions in old age were investigated with the "masked prime" paradigm in which participants executed speeded manual choice responses to simple visual targets. These were preceded--either immediately or at some earlier time--by a backward-masked prime. Young adults produced positive compatibility effects (PCEs)--faster and more accurate responses for matching than for nonmat...

Inhibitory control functions in old age were investigated with the „masked prime‟ paradigm in which participants executed speeded manual choice responses to simple visual targets.

Young adults produced positive compatibility effects (PCEs) – faster and more accurate responses for matching than for non...
متن کاملAge-related deficits in efficiency of low-level lateral inhibition
BACKGROUND In a masked prime task using a 0 ms prime-target inter-stimulus-interval, responses on trials where prime and target match (compatible trials) are usually faster and more accurate than responses where prime and target mismatch (incompatible trials). This positive compatibility effect (PCE) comprises both behavioral benefits on compatible relative to neutral trials, and behavioral cos...
متن کاملInvestigating Age-related Inhibitory Deficits in Spatial Working Memory
OF THESIS INVESTIGATING AGE-RELATED INHIBITORY DEFICITS IN SPATIAL WORKING MEMORY Age-related inhibitory effects were investigated during spatial memory performance. In Experiment 1, 15 young (M = 20 years) and 16 old adults (M = 70 years) completed two spatial tasks (i.e., Block Suppression Test, Corsi Block Tapping Test) that differed in need for inhibitory processing. Accuracy differences wi...
متن کاملEpisodic Memory and Age-Related Deficits in Inhibitory Effectiveness.
Background/Study Context: Age-related deficits in inhibitory control are well established in some areas of cognition, but evidence remains inconclusive in episodic memory. Two studies examined the extent to which a loss in inhibitory effectiveness-as measured by the extent of retrieval-induced forgetting (RIF)-is only detectable in (1) the very old, and (2) that a failure to control for noninhi...
