正常的衰老可能与源记忆（回忆事件的背景）的损伤有关。这项研究检查了衰老对特定来源记忆的影响（例如，记住4个人中的哪一个说了一个词）和部分来源记忆（例如，记住说这个词的人的性别）。当年轻人和老年人在新旧识别方面相匹配时，在特定和部分来源的回忆中观察到与年龄相关的缺陷。当两组在部分源性能上匹配时，没有发现不成比例的特定源损害。结果表明，老化不会对特定与部分来源的记忆产生不同的影响。
Normal aging can be associated with impairments in source memory (recollecting an event's context). This study examined the effects of aging on specific-source memory (e.g., remembering which of 4 people spoke a word) and partial-source memory (e.g., remembering the gender of the person who spoke the word). When young and older adults were matched in terms of old-new recognition, age-related deficits were observed on both specific- and partial-source recollection. When the groups were matched on partial-source performance, no disproportionate specific-source impairment was seen. The results suggest that aging does not differentially affect specific- versus partial-source memory.
