This paper reviews research on age‐related changes in working memory and attention
control. This work is interpreted within a framework labeled “GOLDEN aging”(growing of …

This chapter outlines the changes in cognition that occur in normal human aging, in an effort
to provide a backdrop against which neural changes can be interpreted. It highlights the …

Research on cognitive aging seems to have three primary goals: first, to determine the
extent to which the diversity of observed behavioral changes that occur with advancing age …

The main goal of this special issue is to report new cognitive data in normal and pathological
ageing that are related to neural data at different levels. Ageing is a universal complex …

Since its introduction in the 1970s, the concept of working memory has been a catalyst for
research (Baddeley & Hitch, 1974). Working memory is a powerful explanatory construct that …

Publisher Summary This chapter reviews some of the contributions that the cognitive
neuroscience approach has produced so far in the area of aging. These include the …

This article addresses key topics in cognitive aging, intending to provide the reader with a
brief overview of the current state of research in this growing, multidisciplinary field. A …

Objectives. This study assessed the effect of aging on 3 attentional control functions (ACFs)—
shifting, inhibition, and updating—and on their contribution to working memory (WM) tasks …

Cognitive abilities such as working memory (WM) capacity decrease with age. To determine
the neurophysiological correlates of age-related reduction in working memory capacity, we …

In chapter 25, Balota, Dolan, and Duchek pro-vide a comprehensive review of age-related
memory decrements and the cognitive theoties that have been developed in order to …
