Adult age and digit symbol substitution performance: a meta-analysis
Article Abstract:
The findings of a meta-analysis of the effects of age, education, and estimated year of measurement based on scores from the Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale and the Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale-Revised Digit Symbol Substitution Test, is presented. The findings revealed that 86 percent of the variance in the regression model is accounted by age.

Aging and dual-task performance: a meta-analysis
Article Abstract:
The relations between dual-task effects and aging were examined through a meta-analysis of some studies using latency as the dependent measure and some studies focusing on accuracy. Brinley plots and state traces were derived, and a model to explain different types of complexity was developed.
