Declines in Representational Quality and Strategic Retrieval Processes Contribute to Age-Related Increases in False Recognition
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Direct linkDirect link
Trelle, Alexandra N.; Henson, Richard N.; Green, Deborah A. E.; Simons, Jon S. – Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition, 2017
In a Yes/No object recognition memory test with similar lures, older adults typically exhibit elevated rates of false recognition. However, the contributions of impaired retrieval, relative to reduced availability of target details, are difficult to disentangle using such a test. The present investigation sought to decouple these factors by…
