The Adaptive and Strategic Use of Memory By Older Adults: Evaluative Processing and Value-Directed Remembering
2007, Psychology of Learning and Motivation - Advances in Research and TheoryCitation Excerpt :For example, older adults are more likely to remember advertisements that emphasize an emotional component relative to knowledge-related information (Fung & Carstensen, 2003). Thus, SST suggests that older adults have different goals and values (e.g., Blanchard-Fields & Camp, 1990), such that older adults can regulate emotions in complicated decision-making situations (Blanchard-Fields, 2007), and that this type of processing may be given priority by older adults. In terms of relating life span development theory to experimental evidence, a useful approach (although not typically incorporated in the area of cognitive aging) has been outlined in Jenkins’s tetrahedral model of memory experiments (Jenkins, 1979).
