Abstract

In this paper, we used the Deese-Roediger-McDermott (DRM) false memory paradigm to test two contending theories of cognitive ageing - the Transmission Deficit Hypothesis and the Inhibitory Deficit Hypothesis. The DRM lists contain a number of words (e.g. dream, bed, blanket) that are all related to...
