Age-related differences in arithmetic problem-verification strategies.
To test age-related differences in split and problem-difficulty effects, adults between the ages of 20 and 80 years (N = 138) performed a simple and a complex inequality verification task (e.g., 6 + 3 < 11, 271 + 182 < 458; true or false?). Split effects in verification tasks (i.e., better performance for large-split than for small-split problems) reflect strategy selection between nonexhaustiv...
متن کاملAge-Related Differences in Plausibility-Checking Strategies During Arithmetic Problem Verification Tasks.
OBJECTIVES We examined whether older adults use plausibility-checking strategies while verifying arithmetic problems. We also tested trial-to-trial modulations of plausibility-checking strategies, and aging effects on these sequential modulations. METHOD We asked young and older adults to verify arithmetic problems that violated or respected arithmetic rules (i.e., 5×16 = 87. True/False?). ...
متن کاملDecomposing adult age differences in symbol arithmetic.
A componential analysis was conducted to determine the locus of adult age differences in symbol arithmetic. Measures of the duration of two proposed components, substitution of digits for symbols and the addition or subtraction of the digits resulting from these substitutions, were obtained from 52 young adults and 52 older adults. Tests of working memory, perceptual speed, motor speed, and ass...
متن کاملPrior exercise training attenuated Doxorubicin-induced hepatic oxidative stress in Wistar rats: Age-related differences
Introduction: Previous studies have confirmed the sidelong effects of Doxorubicin (DOX) on healthy tissues, but pretreatment effect of regular Aerobic exercise in restrain of hepatotoxicity induced by doxorubicin is not clear. The aim of this study was to investigate the pretreatment effect of regular aerobic exercise on hepatic oxidative stress induced with doxorubicin of Wistar rats in differ...
متن کاملLearning Disabilities in Arithmetic: Problem-Solving Differences and Cognitive Deficits
The complexity of the field of mathematics makes the study of any associated learning disability daunting. In theory, a mathematical learning disability can result from deficits in the ability to represent or process information used in one or all of the many areas of mathematics (e.g., arithmetic and geometry), or in one or a set of individual domains (e.g., theorems vs. graphing) within each ...
