Aging and repetition effects: separate specific and nonspecific influences
Article Abstract:
The research undertaken focuses on processes that contribute to the repetition effect in 2-alternative forced-choice tasks and on how these processes change with age. The results argue against the practice of attributing age differences in repetition effects to deficits in any single cognitive process.
