忽视或控制分心信息处理的能力可能是许多与年龄相关的认知能力差异和个体差异的基础。使用18至87岁的成年人的大样本。本文提供的数据检验了分心控制在年龄和高阶认知之间的关系中的中介作用。注意力分散的阅读任务（Connelly，Hasher，& Zacks，1991）被用来衡量注意力分散控制的访问功能。本研究的结果表明，分心控制，作为衡量这一范式，起着重要的作用，在中介年龄相关的影响措施的工作记忆和矩阵推理。
The ability to ignore or control the processing of distracting information may underlie many age-related and individual differences in cognitive abilities. Using a large sample of adults aged 18 to 87 years. this article presents data examining the mediating role of distraction control in the relationship between age and higher order cognition. The reading with distraction task (Connelly, Hasher, & Zacks, 1991) has been used as a measure of the access function of distraction control. Results of this study suggest that distraction control, as measured by this paradigm, plays an important role in mediating age-related effects on measures of working memory and matrix reasoning.
