Memory fidelity in healthy ageing and risk for cognitive decline
H Gellersen - 2022 - repository.cam.ac.uk
Memory decline is characteristic of cognitive ageing and it has been suggested that one
important factor underpinning the magnitude of age deficits is a reduction in the fidelity or …

[HTML][HTML] Age impairs mnemonic discrimination of objects more than scenes: A web-based, large-scale approach across the lifespan
Recent findings suggest that the effect of aging on recognition memory is modality-
dependent, affecting memory for objects and scenes differently. However, the lifespan …

Aging impacts memory for perceptual, but not narrative, event details
Memory is well known to decline over the course of healthy aging. However, memory is not a
monolith and draws from different kinds of representations. Historically, much of our …

Domain general processes moderate age-related performance differences on the mnemonic similarity task
CM Foster, KS Giovanello - Memory, 2020 - Taylor & Francis
Several prominent domain general theories (eg, processing speed and inhibitory function)
have been developed to explain cognitive changes associated with aging. A bias to “pattern …
