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.

The effects of aging, on attentional selection of an object in the visual field that degrades processing of neighboring stimuli in young adults, is examined. The results reveal that the older observers loose their ability to attend to multiple spatially proximal stimuli within the visual field.
