陈述性记忆对日常学习至关重要。虽然陈述性记忆能力随着年龄的增长而下降，但有证据表明，性和早期教育可能会缓和这些弱点。然而，以前研究的局限性，如小的教育范围和未经检查的潜在相互作用，阻碍了我们对这些可能的“保护”变量的理解。我们调查了性别和教育对704名非西方（台湾）老年人（年龄58-98岁，0-17岁的教育）的非言语陈述性记忆的影响，通过探测识别记忆后的偶然编码。项目是真实的的图纸（例如，发刷）和化妆品。混合效应回归分析显示，年龄对陈述性记忆有负面影响，但这种年龄效应受性别和对象类型的调节。男性比女性更陡峭（从70岁开始，女性就有优势），尽管只是针对真实的物体。对虚构物品的记忆力下降幅度较小，没有性别差异。教育与记忆力呈正相关，但也与性别和物体类型相互作用：教育对女性的益处大于男性，对真实的物体的记忆大于虚构的物体。在男性中，与每一年教育相关的整体记忆增益是每一年衰老过程中经历的损失的两倍;在女性中，它们是五倍。研究结果表明，老年人的非语言记忆与年龄呈负相关，但与教育呈正相关，尽管这两种影响都受到性别以及学习是否与已有知识或新信息有关的调节。这项研究表明，下游受益于教育，特别是女孩。
Declarative memory is critical for everyday learning. Although declarative memory abilities decline with age, evidence suggests that sex and early-life education might moderate these weaknesses. However, limitations in previous studies, such as small education ranges and unexamined potential interactions, have stymied our understanding of these possibly ‘protective’ variables. We investigated effects of sex and education on nonverbal declarative memory in 704 older adults (aged 58–98, 0–17 years of education) in a non-Western (Taiwanese) population, by probing recognition memory following incidental encoding. Items were drawings of real (e.g., hairbrush) and made-up objects. Mixed-effects regression revealed that age negatively impacted declarative memory, though this age effect was moderated by sex and object type. It was steeper for males than females (yielding a female advantage from age 70), though only for real objects. Remembering made-up objects showed shallower declines with no sex differences. Education was positively associated with memory, but also interacted with sex and object type: education benefited women more than men, and remembering real more than made-up objects. In men, the overall memory gains associated with each year of education were two times larger than the losses experienced during each year of aging; in women, they were five times larger. The findings suggest that nonverbal memory in older adults is associated negatively with age but positively with education, though both effects are modulated by sex, and by whether learning relates to pre-existing knowledge or new information. The study suggests downstream benefits from education, especially for girls.
