Metamemory and memory efficiency in older adults: Learning about the benefits of priority processing and value-directed remembering.

TL;DR: This paper found that patients with first-episode schizophrenia had substantial impairments on the value-directed remembering task, but areas of preserved metamemory ability were also observed, while patients initially overestimated their memory capacity but were able to adjust their estimates to be more accurate based on task experience.

TL;DR: This paper examined whether subjective value and interest impacted memory and metacognitive judgments (i.e., predictions about what one will remember) in older and younger adults in order to better understand mechanisms that enhance memory and meetacognitive accuracy.

TL;DR: Findings reveal stroke patients may have specific metamemory impairment and can contribute to the understanding of cognitive models of metAMemory processing.

TL;DR: Baltes et al. as discussed by the authors presented a psychological model for the study of successful aging that, they contend, is consistent with the propositional framework, based on the premise that successful individual development (including aging) is a process involving three components: selection, optimization, and compensation.

TL;DR: This chapter discusses the theoretical and empirical literature that addresses aging and discourse comprehension and a series of five studies guided by a particular working memory viewpoint regarding the formation of inferences during discourse processing are described.
