Cereb Cortex 18:1010-28. 2008..These results are consistent with the hypothesis that age-related impairments in goal maintenance abilities cause a compensatory shift in older adults from a proactive (seen in young adults) to a reactive cognitive control strategy...

Department of Psychology, Washington University, St Louis, MO 63130, USA
Psychol Aging 20:33-46. 2005..The results suggest that context processing may be composed of functionally dissociable components and point to the utility of this construct in understanding the timecourse of cognitive decline in healthy and pathological aging...
