memory

Question 1

Crystalized and fluid intelligence

Answer 1

CI stays the same, FI decreases with age

Question 2

Older adults and recent long-term (secondary) memory and working memory aspect of short-term memory

Answer 2

Decline

Question 3

Decline in older adults

Answer 3

Fluid intelligence, recent long-term (secondary) memory, working memory aspect of short-term memory, and episodic memory (part of declarative)

Question 4

Stable in older adults

Answer 4

Storage aspect of short-term memory (primary), remote long-term (secondary), semantic, nondeclarative (implicit - procedural) memory

Question 5

Declarative memory

Answer 5

is also referred to as explicit memory and includes episodic and semantic memory which consist of, respectively, memories for autobiographical events and memories for facts, concepts, and other kinds of knowledge.

Question 6

Nondeclarative memory

Answer 6

is also referred to as implicit memory and consists of procedural memory (memory for learned skills and actions), memories created by classical conditioning, and memories affected by priming (in which prior exposure to a stimulus increases subsequent recognition of that stimulus).

Question 7

Synchrony effect

Answer 7

Peak circadian arousal and task performance is in the morning for older adults and in the late afternoon and evening for younger adults.

Research on the synchrony effect has confirmed that there are age-related differences with regard to the optimal time for successful performance on various visual and verbal memory tasks, problem-solving tasks, and other cognitive tasks, especially tasks that depend on the ability to inhibit a prepotent response.

Question 8

Age-related changes in fluid intelligence have been linked to changes in processing speed and:
•	A. working memory.
•	B. sensory memory.
•	C. recent long-term memory.
•	D. prospective memory.

Answer 8

Working memory and processing speed
