我们研究了老年人是否有共同的服药模式，以及当组织起来与这种预先存在的模式相匹配时，是否能更好地理解和回忆说明。实验1调查了老年人是否同意如何将药物信息分类，以及他们是否同意安排这些信息的顺序。老年人倾向于将信息分为三类，按以下顺序排列：关于药物的一般信息（目的），如何服用（剂量和时间表）和结果（紧急信息）。在实验2中，我们比较了以下指令：（a）在分组和顺序方面与该模式兼容，（B）仅在分组方面兼容（类别顺序被改变），以及（c）不兼容，在分组或顺序方面不匹配模型。药物信息的记忆随着说明与模型的兼容性而增加。长老们也更喜欢更兼容的指令。研究结果表明，老年人拥有一个服用药物的图式，他们用它来理解和回忆药物说明。
We examined whether elders share a schema for taking medication and if instructions are better understood and recalled when organized to match this pre-existing schema. Experiment 1 investigated if elders agree on how to group medication information into categories, and if they agree on an order for arranging this information. Elders tended to organize information into three categories, arranged in the following order: general information about the medication (purpose), how to take (dose and schedule), and outcomes (emergency information). In experiment 2, we compared instructions that were: (a) compatible with this schema in terms of grouping and order, (b) compatible only in terms of grouping (category order was changed), and (c) incompatible, not matching the model in terms of either grouping or order. Memory for medication information increased with the compatibility of the instructions to the model. Elders also preferred the more compatible instructions. The findings suggest that elders possess a schema for taking medication, which they use to understand and recall medication instructions.
