以前的工作（Hasher，Stoltzfus，Zacks和Rypma，1991）表明，成年人在抑制或抑制无关信息的能力方面存在与年龄相关的差异。本研究探讨了抑制时间过程的年龄差异。实验1和2表明，年轻的成年人在选择反应后，在300毫秒时表现出与在1,700毫秒时相同的抑制水平。老年人始终没有表现出抑制。实验2和3还研究了抑制和干扰物干扰并行选择的程度之间的关系。缺乏一个可靠的关系-内和跨年龄组-与其他研究结果在文献中，提出了问题的功能抑制作为一种机制，同时选择。另一个功能，一个在建立一个连贯的思想流的援助，提出。
Previous work (Hasher, Stoltzfus, Zacks, & Rypma, 1991) suggested the existence of adult age-related differences in the ability to suppress or inhibit irrelevant information. This investigation explored age differences in the time course of suppression. Experiments 1 and 2 showed that younger adults demonstrate the same level of suppression at 300 as they do at 1,700 ms after a selection response. Older adults consistently show no suppression. Experiments 2 and 3 also examined the relationship between suppression and the degree to which distractors interfere with concurrent selection. The absence of a reliable relationship — both within and across age groups — together with other findings in the literature, raise questions about the function of suppression as a mechanism of concurrent selection. Another function, one that aids in the establishment of a coherent thought stream, is proposed.
