Journal ArticleDOI
A lifespan database of adult facial stimuli.
Meredith Minear,Denise C. Park +1 more
TL;DR: A database of 575 individual faces ranging from ages 18 to 93 is described, developed to be more representative of age groups across the lifespan, with a special emphasis on recruiting older adults.
Journal ArticleDOI
Aging reduces neural specialization in ventral visual cortex
TL;DR: Whether neural structures become less functionally differentiated and specialized with age is investigated, and results demonstrated significantly less neural specialization for these stimulus categories in older adults across a range of analyses.
Journal ArticleDOI
Aging and the Neural Correlates of Successful Picture Encoding: Frontal Activations Compensate for Decreased Medial-Temporal Activity
Angela H. Gutchess,Robert C. Welsh,Trey Hedden,Ashley S. Bangert,Meredith Minear,Linda L. Liu,Denise C. Park +6 more
TL;DR: Detailed fMRI analyses suggest that prefrontal regions could serve a compensatory role for declines in medial-temporal activations with age, and correlations between inferior frontal and parahippocampal activity were significantly negative for old but not young.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cognitive function in fibromyalgia patients
TL;DR: The intact performance on measures of information processing speed suggests that the cognitive deficits in FM patients are not global, and complaints about their memory are likely to be legitimate, since their memory function is not age appropriate.
Journal ArticleDOI
Working memory, fluid intelligence, and impulsiveness in heavy media multitaskers
TL;DR: There is no evidence to support the contention that HMMs are worse in a multitasking situation such as task switching or that they show any deficits in dealing with irrelevant or distracting information, as compared with LMMs.
