Age differences in text processing: the role of working memory, inhibition, and processing speed.

OBJECTIVES Age-related changes in the efficiency of various general cognitive mechanisms have been evoked to account for age-related differences between young and older adults in text comprehension performance. Using structural equation modeling, we investigate the relationship between age, working memory (WM), inhibition-related mechanisms, processing speed, and text comprehension, focusing on...

Mediation of Adult Age Differences in Cognition by Reductions in Working Memory and Speed of Processing

T/rree studies, involving a total of672 adults between 20 and 84 years of age, were conducted to evaluate the relative importance of working memory and perceptual comparison speed in the age-related dffirences in selected measures of cognitive functioning.

Processing speed and adult age differences in activity memory.

Immediate and delayed recall of performed cognitive activities was examined in 136 adults aged 20 to 85. Hierarchical regression analyses were used to assess the association between perceptual speed and age differences in activity memory. The age-related variance in delayed activity recall was reduced by 52% by the statistical control of perceptual speed, and the age-related variance in immedia...

The effect of verbal and visuospatial working memory spans on collocation processing in learners of English

Much interest has recently been directed toward the knowledge of collocations in the field of second language learning since they have been asserted to improve fluency. The current study was intended to examine the effect of verbal and visuospatial working memory spans on the processing of collocations using a Self-Pace Reading Task (SPRT) and relevant working memory tasks. To this end, partici...
