我们研究了在有意对拍摄的场景进行编码时,眼动是否存在与年龄相关的差异,这可能解释了对场景中物体记忆的年龄相关差异。年轻人和老年人表现出相似的扫描路径模式,并且以相似的频率和持续时间访问场景中每个感兴趣的区域。尽管在观看上有相似之处,但在观看与记忆的关系上却存在着根本的差异。尽管老年人的整体识别能力比年轻人差,但对只访问过一次的物体的识别概率没有年龄影响。更重要的是,对物体的重复访问为年轻人带来了识别概率的增加,但对老年人却没有。这些结果表明,与年龄相关的物体识别性能差异部分是由于从工作记忆到长期记忆的信息整合效率低下。
We examined whether there were age-related differences in eye movements during intentional encoding of a photographed scene that might account for age-related differences in memory of objects in the scene. Younger and older adults exhibited similar scan path patterns, and visited each region of interest in the scene with similar frequency and duration. Despite the similarity in viewing, there were fundamental differences in the viewing–memory relationship. Although overall recognition was poorer in the older than younger adults, there was no age effect on recognition probability for objects visited only once. More importantly, re-visits to objects brought gain in recognition probability for the younger adults, but not for the older adults. These results suggest that the age-related differences in object recognition performance are in part due to inefficient integration of information from working memory to longer-term memory.
