![]() ![]() Each span measure was completed under self-paced and timed encoding conditions. #Psyscope digit span series#Methods: Forty-two young (Mage = 19.45 years) and 42 older participants (Mage = 73.00 years) completed a series of neuropsychological screening measures, four memory span tasks (one-syllable word span, three-syllable word span, reading span, and sentence span), and a measure of reading comprehension. Moreover, recent studies of the psychometric properties of span measures in the general cognitive literature highlight the need for a critical reassessment of age-related differences in working memory task performance. Schroeder Center for Biomedical Informatics, Texas A&M Health Science University, Houston, Texas, USA Background/Study Context: Declines in verbal working memory span task performance have been associated with deficits in the language processing abilities of healthy older adults, but it is unclear how storage and processing contribute to this relationship. ![]() THE EFFECTS OF AGE ON PROCESSING AND STORAGE IN WORKING MEMORY SPAN TASKS AND READING COMPREHENSION Any substantial or systematic reproduction, redistribution, reselling, loan, sub-licensing, systematic supply, or distribution in any form to anyone is expressly forbidden.
