Description
A characteristic feature of the aging process is a decline in episodic memory, that form of memory related to a particular time and place in an individual's personal history. This volume gathers together articles by leaders in the field exploring aging and episodic memory in healthy adults. These articles provide interesting and novel findings on different aspects of episodic memory, including patterns of decline and sparing, heterogeneity in older adults' memory performance, and cognitive and non-cognitive factors that potentially improve older adults' memory performance. This volume presents a state of the art account of episodic memory function in older adults.
