Memory for past events deteriorates in both dementia and healthy aging. Mounting research reveals that the ability to imagine, plan, and prepare for the future – “prospection” – also declines, with potentially severe implications for functional everyday activities. This research will uncover the changes that lead to prospection decline, link this decline to everyday impairment, and develop a new intervention to improve prospection abilities, quality of life, and wellbeing in aging and dementia.

在痴呆症和健康老龄化中，对过去事件的记忆都会恶化。越来越多的研究表明，想象、计划和为未来做准备的能力--“展望”--也会下降，这对日常活动的功能性有着潜在的严重影响。这项研究将揭示导致前瞻性下降的变化，将这种下降与日常损害联系起来，并开发一种新的干预措施，以改善前瞻性能力，生活质量以及老年和痴呆症的健康状况。
