本文探讨了年龄差异的个人的能力,以产生学习的听觉和视觉目标事件的持续时间,无论是在隔离(集中注意力)或同时(分散注意力)。年轻的成年人学习目标的持续时间同样很好地集中和分散注意力的条件。相比之下,老年人在分散注意力的条件下表现出与年龄相关的时间变异性增加,视觉目标比听觉目标更明显。与工作记忆广度的减少相关的障碍;此外,工作记忆和时间性能之间的关系是最大的视觉目标在分散注意力的条件。
This article examines age differences in individual's ability to produce the durations of learned auditory and visual target events either in isolation (focused attention) or concurrently (divided attention). Young adults produced learned target durations equally well in focused and divided attention conditions. Older adults, in contrast, showed an age-related increase in timing variability in divided attention conditions that tended to be more pronounced for visual targets than for auditory targets. Age-related impairments were associated with a decrease in working memory span; moreover, the relationship between working memory and timing performance was largest for visual targets in divided attention conditions.
