Abstract

ABSTRACT Objective We investigated whether beliefs about the current versus future effectiveness of memory strategies predict young and older adults’ everyday strategy use. Method 103 young and 91 older adults reported their memory goals, beliefs about the current and future effectiveness of various strategies, and frequency of use of each strategy type. Results The two age groups equally valued current and future memory. Young adults’ strategy selection related only to their beliefs about the strategies’ current effectiveness; older adults utilized approaches they perceived as effective for improving both future and current memory. Implications Findings highlight the importance of the temporal nature of memory strategy beliefs.

相同的目标，但不同的结果:以现在为中心与以未来为中心的记忆信念对年轻人和老年人日常记忆策略使用的不同预测。

目的:研究当前和未来记忆策略有效性的信念是否能预测年轻人和老年人的日常策略使用。方法:103名年轻人和91名老年人报告了他们的记忆目标、对各种策略当前和未来有效性的看法以及每种策略的使用频率。结果:两个年龄组对当前记忆和未来记忆的评价相同。青年的策略选择仅与他们对策略当前有效性的信念相关;老年人使用了他们认为有效的方法来改善未来和当前的记忆。启示:研究结果强调了记忆策略信念的时间性质的重要性。

期刊介绍： Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance. Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
