Cleary, Miranda; Wilkinson, Tracy; Wilson, Lauren; Goupell, Matthew J. – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2018
Purpose: Short-term and working memory vary across individuals and life span. Studies of how cochlear implant (CI) users remember spoken words often do not fully disentangle perceptual influences from memory assessment because stimulus identification is rarely checked; instead, correct perception is assumed by using simple or practiced stimuli.…

Bender, Andrew R.; Raz, Naftali – Neuropsychologia, 2012
Advanced age and vascular risk are associated with declines in the volumes of multiple brain regions, especially the prefrontal cortex, and the hippocampus. Older adults, even unencumbered by declining health, perform less well than their younger counterparts in multiple cognitive domains, such as episodic memory, executive functions, and speed of…

Feld, Julia E.; Sommers, Mitchell S. – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2009
Purpose: To examine several cognitive and perceptual abilities--including working memory (WM), information processing speed (PS), perceptual closure, and perceptual disembedding skill--as factors contributing to individual differences in lipreading performance and to examine how patterns in predictor variables change across age groups. Method:…

Salthouse, Timothy A.; Pink, Jeffrey E.; Tucker-Drob, Elliot M. – Intelligence, 2008
The nature of fluid intelligence was investigated by identifying variables that were, and were not, significantly related to this construct. Relevant information was obtained from three sources: re-analyses of data from previous studies, a study in which 791 adults performed storage-plus-processing working memory tasks, and a study in which 236…

Cepeda, Nicholas J.; Kramer, Arthur F.; de Sather, Jessica C. M. Gonzalez – Developmental Psychology, 2001
Examined changes from age 7 to 82 years in processes responsible for preparation and interference control underlying alternation between two tasks. Found a U-shaped function for switch costs, with larger costs for young children and older adults. Age-related variance in task-switching performance was partially independent from age-related variance…
