在经历积极或消极情绪状态的老年人和年轻人中发现了执行功能的变化。目前的研究调查的假设，老年人会表现出更大的执行功能障碍后，情绪诱导比年轻人。96名参与者（一半年龄在19-37岁，一半年龄在53-80岁）完成了中性，积极或消极的情绪诱导程序，然后是伦敦塔规划任务。年龄和情绪之间的显着相互作用，如老年人表现出更大的规划障碍比年轻人在积极和消极的情绪条件。在测试前发生的异常突出事件可能会干扰老年人的执行功能。
Changes in executive functions have been found in older adults and also in young adults experiencing positive or negative mood states. The current study investigated the hypothesis that older adults would show greater executive function impairment following mood induction than young adults. Ninety-six participants (half aged 19-37, half aged 53-80) completed a neutral, positive, or negative mood induction procedure, followed by the Tower of London planning task. Significant interactions were found between age and mood such that older adults showed greater planning impairment than young adults in both the positive and negative mood conditions. Emotionally salient events occurring before testing may interfere with executive function in older adults.
