了解衰老如何影响不同文化中的认知一直受到缺乏标准化，交叉引用的语言刺激的阻碍。本研究介绍了一个数据库，这些项目水平的刺激，年轻人和老年人，在中国和美国，并作出了3个不同的贡献。首先，作者详细说明了哪些项目类别在年龄和/或文化群体中具有普遍性，并严格量化了它们之间的差异。其次，他们引入了新的，强大的方法来衡量组间差异的自由生成的排名数据，排名有序logit模型和Hellinger亲和力。最后，一个广泛的档案测试，跨语言的刺激，现在免费提供给研究人员：数据，相似性措施，和所有刺激材料的105个类别和4个文化的年龄组，包括超过10,000个完全翻译的独特的项目反应。
Understanding how aging influences cognition across different cultures has been hindered by a lack of standardized, cross-referenced verbal stimuli. This study introduces a database of such item-level stimuli for both younger and older adults, in China and the United States, and makes 3 distinct contributions. First,,the authors specify which item categories generalize across age and/or cultural groups, rigorously quantifying differences among them. Second, they introduce novel, powerful methods to measure between-group differences in freely generated ranked data, the rank-ordered logit model and Hellinger Affinity. Finally, a broad archive of tested, cross-linguistic stimuli is now freely available to researchers: data, similarity measures, and all stimulus materials for 105 categories and 4 culture-by-age groups, comprising over 10,000 fully translated unique item responses.
