Challenges to understanding age-related memory loss in late adulthood: an introduction
Author(s)M Luszcz, J Bryan
Journal titleGerontology, vol 45, no 6, November/December 1999
Pagespp 343-344
KeywordsMemory and Reminiscence ; Research.
AnnotationIn the first 1999 issue of Gerontology several current hypotheses of age-related memory loss were canvassed. In the hope of fostering debate and further consideration of factors implicated in memory loss in late adulthood, commentaries were sought by this journal from a number of prominent cognitive ageing researchers. This paper briefly summarises four commentaries published in this issue. The commentaries elaborate on several themes raised in the original review, articulate assumptions implicit in the review, question the techniques used to assess mediational hypotheses, and suggest factors omitted from the review that also need to be considered.
