我们研究了年龄相关的差异记忆的身份和情绪表达的陌生面孔。年轻人和老年人被呈现出快乐和愤怒的面孔，然后被要求识别出表现出中性表情的相同面孔。当一张脸被认出时，他们还必须记住这张脸最初的表情是什么。此外，与身份和表达记忆的意识状态进行了评估与记住/知道/猜测范式。老年人比年轻人对身份的回忆经验少，但对面孔的情感表达没有。这一证据表明，与年龄相关的记忆差异可能取决于要记住的信息的性质，老年人和年轻人一样记住情感/社会信息。
We examined age-related differences in memory for identity and emotional expression of unfamiliar faces. Younger and older adults were presented with happy and angry faces and were later asked to recognise the same faces displaying a neutral expression. When a face was recognised, they also had to remember what the initial expression of the face had been. In addition, states of awareness associated with both identity and expression memory were assessed with the remember/know/guess paradigm. Older adults showed less recollective experience than younger adults for identity but not for emotional expressions of the faces. This evidence indicates that age-related differences in memory may depend on the nature of the to-be-remembered information, with emotional/social information being remembered as well in older as in younger adults.
