年轻人和老年人阅读两次测量的简短段落，以便随后的理解或回忆。回归分析被用来分解一个字一个字的阅读时间到分配给字和文本基层进程的资源。读者在为回忆而阅读时比为理解而阅读时对这些要求更敏感。资源分配模式表现出良好的重测信度和记忆表现的预测。在年龄组内，资源分配参数没有系统地与其他个人差异的措施，这表明在线资源分配的策略可能是一个独特的来源，在确定理解和记忆文本的个体差异。分配模式的年龄差异似乎反映了老年人的普遍放缓。由于老年人表现出与年轻读者相同的记忆表现，因此阅读时间数据可能代表老年人和年轻读者之间可比结果所需的在线资源分配。
Younger and older adults read short expository passages across 2 times of measurement for subsequent comprehension or recall. Regression analysis was used to decompose word-by-word reading times into resources allocated to word- and textbase-level processes. Readers were more sensitive to these demands when reading for recall than when reading for comprehension. Patterns of resource allocation showed good test-retest reliabilities and were predictive of memory performance. Within age group, resource allocation parameters were not systematically correlated with other individual-difference measures, suggesting that strategies of on-line resource allocation may be a unique source of individual differences in determining comprehension of and memory for text. Age differences in allocation patterns appeared to reflect general slowing among the older adults. Because older adults showed equivalent memory performance to that of younger readers, the reading time data may represent the on-line resource allocation needed for comparable outcomes among older and younger readers.
