8名年轻妇女和8名老年妇女（17至25岁和62至75岁）在定时条件下进行卡片分类。任务的复杂性不同，增加刺激的数量和排序条件的第二个刺激。年龄较大的女性通常较慢，年龄差异随着任务复杂性的增加而增加。这两个年龄段的妇女在五次练习中的反应率都在增加。在10天后的后续测试中保持增益，并将其转移到具有不同刺激的类别中。实践并没有减少年龄差异（年长女性的收益与年轻女性相当），但有迹象表明年龄-复杂性关系减弱
Eight younger and 8 older women (17 to 25 and 62 to 75 years) practiced card sorting under timed conditions. Task complexity was varied by increasing the number of stimuli and by making sorting conditional on a second stimulus. The older women generally were slower, and age differences increased as a function of task complexity. Women of both ages responded at increasing rates over the five practice sessions. Gains were maintained during a follow-up test 10 days later and transferred to sorts with different stimuli. Practice did not reduce age differences (gains by the older women were matched by the younger ones), but there was some indication that the age-complexity relationship was attenuated
