Does job-related training performance decline with age?
نویسندگان
چکیده
The meta-analytic review presents the findings of a project investigating the relationship between age and job-related training outcomes. The analysis is based on 83 effect sizes derived from 6,610 individuals. Results showed poorer training performance for older adults. In general, older adults, relative to younger adults, showed less mastery of training material (r = -.26), completed the final training task more slowly (r = .28), and took longer to complete the training program (r = .42). Field samples generally showed smaller age effects than laboratory samples. Estimated training performance for average individuals at various ages is provided.

Using a meta-analytic approach, we recently reported that the rate of decline in maximal oxygen uptake (VO2 max) with age in healthy women is greatest in the most physically active and smallest in the least active when expressed in milliliters per kilogram per minute per decade. We tested this hypothesis prospectively under well-controlled laboratory conditions by studying 156 healthy, nonobese...
