How useful is executive control training? Age differences in near and far transfer of task-switching training. (2009, background): “…Worm, Somsen & Van der Molen, 2004; Kray et al., 2008; Kray et al., 2004) and older adults (e.g. Mayr, 2001; Meiran, Gotler & Perlman, 2001), while age differences on the level of switching costs seem to be less pronounced (e.g. Kray & Lindenberger, 2000; Mayr, 2001; Verhaeghen & Cerella, 2002).”
Digital Stress over the Life Span: The Effects of Communication Load and Internet Multitasking on Perceived Stress and Psychological Health Impairments in a German Probability Sample (2017, background): “The decline of cognitive capacity at a higher age (Verhaeghen & Cerella, 2002; Verhaeghen & Salthouse, 1997) could be a plausible explanation for this age difference.”
Age-related effects over bilingual language control and executive control* (2013, background): “…of the EC system, one might expect that the decline of the EC system associated with aging (Greenwood, 2000; Rhodes, 2004; Tisserand & Jolles, 2003; Verhaeghen & Cerella, 2002; Verhaeghen, Steitz, Sliwinski & Cerella, 2003; Wasylyshyn, Verhaeghen & Sliwinski, 2011) affects the functionality of the…”
Aging and verbal memory span: a meta-analysis. (2005, background): “…adults can be predicted reliably the average performance of a group of younger adults tasks that measure similar types of processing (e.g., , 1990; Cerella et al.; Myerson, Hale, Wagstaff, & 1990; Verhaeghen, 2000; Verhaeghen & Cerella, 2002; 19 M a 2024 & Marcoen, 1993; Verhaeghen et al., 2002).”
A meta-analytic review of emotion recognition and aging: implications for neuropsychological models of aging. (2008, background): “There is now a considerable literature showing that age differences tend to increase as a cognitive task becomes more difficult (e.g., Earles et al., 2004; Henry et al., 2004b; McDowd, and Craik, 1988; Verhaeghen and Cerella, 2002).”
Decreased segregation of brain systems across the healthy adult lifespan (2014, background): “The decreasing executive ability that characterizes older age (42, 53, 54) may be a consequence of reduced functional specialization of systems that mediate these abilities, as indexed by decreasing association system segregation.”
