Serial position effects in mild cognitive impairment.
Mild cognitive impairment (MCI) is often associated with the preclinical phase of Alzheimer's disease (AD). Special scoring of word-list recall data for serial position has been suggested to improve discrimination of normal aging from dementia. We examined serial position effects in word-list recall for MCI participants compared to Alzheimer patients and controls. Individuals with MCI, like Alz...
متن کاملNeuronal correlates of serial position performance in amnestic mild cognitive impairment.
OBJECTIVES Delayed recall of the first words of a list-the primacy position-is thought to be particularly dependent on intact memory consolidation. Hippocampal volume has been suggested as the primary neuronal correlate of delayed primacy recall in cognitively normal elderly individuals. Here, we studied the association of hippocampal volume with primacy recall in individuals with amnestic mild...

UNLABELLED Serial position effects are observed when a person memorises a series of words exceeding his or her attention span. Cognitively normal individuals recall words at the beginning and end of the list more frequently than those in the middle, which reflects the way that short- and long-term episodic memory works. OBJECTIVE To study the serial position effect in patients with mild cogni...

PURPOSE OF REVIEW As individuals age, the quality of cognitive function becomes an increasingly important topic. The concept of mild cognitive impairment (MCI) has evolved over the past 2 decades to represent a state of cognitive function between that seen in normal aging and dementia. As such, it is important for health care providers to be aware of the condition and place it in the appropriat...

However, for most adults cognitive aging also brings slower mental processing, reduced mental flexibility, increased susceptibility to distraction, and more difficulty learning new things. As an example, the amount of detail recalled from a short st...
