本研究探讨了抑郁症，健康和记忆自我效能分数的能力，预测认知受损和认知完整的老年人使用内部和外部记忆策略。有记忆自我效能分数和他们使用的外部记忆策略的地方的程度上没有差异的组之间。认知完整组比认知受损组更频繁地使用策略来帮助记忆，并且使用的外部记忆策略比内部记忆策略更多。认知完整的一组比另一组更经常地使用精心制作和排练的内部策略，并且比另一组花费的努力更少。记忆自我效能得分是认知完整组使用外部记忆辅助工具的唯一预测因素，年龄是认知受损组使用外部记忆辅助工具的唯一预测因素。没有变量能够预测使用内部记忆策略的任何一组。
This study examined the ability of depression, health, and memory self-efficacy scores to predict the use of internal and external memory strategies by cognitively impaired and cognitively intact older adults. There were no differences between the groups on memory self-efficacy scores and on the extent of their use of the external memory strategy of place. The cognitively intact group used strategies to aid memory more often than did the cognitively impaired group and used more external than internal memory strategies. The cognitively intact group used the internal strategies of elaboration and rehearsal more often than the other group and were less likely to expend effort than the other group. Memory self-efficacy scores were the sole predictor of use of external memory aids by the cognitively intact group, and age was the sole predictor of use of external memory aids by the cognitively impaired group. No variable was able to predict the use of internal memory strategies by either group.
