J Am Geriatr Soc 59:258-65. 2011..To investigate maintenance of training effects of a novel brain plasticity-based computerized cognitive training program in older adults after a 3-month no-contact period...
Far transfer in cognitive training of older adultsElizabeth M Zelinski

Restor Neurol Neurosci 27:455-71. 2009..This article reviews the literature on far transfer effects in training of older adults...
Not your parents' test scores: cohort reduces psychometric aging effectsElizabeth M Zelinski
Leonard Davis School of Gerontology, Andrus Gerontology Center, University of Southern California, Los Angeles, CA 90089, USA
Psychol Aging 22:546-57. 2007..This result could have major implications for the expected productivity of an aging workforce as well as for the quality of life of future generations. However, cohort improvements did not mitigate age declines...
A 10-item Rasch modeled memory self-efficacy scaleE M Zelinski
Leonard Davis School of Gerontology, Univeristy of Southern California, Los Angeles 90089 0191, USA
Aging Ment Health 8:293-306. 2004..The shortened test is predicted by the same covariates as the long version, indicating that it has similar construct validity...
Adult age differences in multiple cognitive functions: differentiation, dedifferentiation, or process-specific change?Elizabeth M Zelinski
Leonard Davis School of Gerontology, Andrus Gerontology Center, University of Southern California, Los Angeles 90089 0191, USA
Psychol Aging 18:727-45. 2003..There were no changes in factor standard deviations or covariances. Findings did not support models of dedifferentiation with age...
Sixteen-year longitudinal and time lag changes in memory and cognition in older adultsE M Zelinski
Leonard Davis School of Gerontology, Andrus Gerontology Center, University of Southern California, Los Angeles, USA
Psychol Aging 12:503-13. 1997..These results suggest that age changes in list and text recall in older adults are due to age-related declines rather than to cohort differences and that age declines in recognition are not reliable...
The relationship between subjective and objective memory in the oldest old: comparisons of findings from a representative and a convenience sampleE M Zelinski
Leonard Davis School of Gerontology, USA
J Aging Health 13:248-66. 2001..To evaluate the hypotheses that subjective memory ratings are more accurate in the oldest old than in the young old and more accurate in a representative sample than in a convenience sample...
The Long Beach Longitudinal Study: evaluation of longitudinal effects of aging on memory and cognitionE M Zelinski
Leonard Davis School of Gerontology, Andrus Gerontology Center, University of Southern California, Los Angeles, CA 90089 0191, USA
Home Health Care Serv Q 19:45-55. 2001..Change patterns of the oldest-old, who differ from less elderly adults, are discussed...
Individual differences in 16-year memory changesE M Zelinski
Leonard Davis School of Gerontology, University of Southern California, Los Angeles 90089 0191, USA
Psychol Aging 13:622-30. 1998..There were no reliable predictors of declines in recognition. The findings suggest that changes in abilities, as well as age and gender, predict declines on memory tasks. However, the specific predictors varied across tasks...
Do medical conditions affect cognition in older adults?E M Zelinski
Leonard Davis School of Gerontology, University of Southern California, Los Angeles 90089 0191, USA
Health Psychol 17:504-12. 1998..Findings suggest that stroke and diabetes are associated with cognitive deficits. Some deficits are more pronounced in younger old adults with high blood pressure and poorer health ratings...
Longitudinal hierarchical linear models of the memory functioning questionnaireChristianne J Lane
Department of Psychology, University of Southern California, USA
Psychol Aging 18:38-53. 2003..Personality predicted baseline Frequency and Seriousness ratings and list and text recall slopes predicted Mnemonics slopes. Different mechanisms may underlie baseline ratings and changes in ratings for different factors...
Estimating age change in list recall in asset and health dynamics of the oldest-old: the effects of attrition bias and missing data treatmentRobert F Kennison
Andrus Gerontology Center, University of Southern California, Los Angeles, CA 90089-0191, USA
Psychol Aging 20:460-75. 2005..The authors conclude that change estimates are most accurate when independent predictors of missingness are included in the treatment of missing data with either MI or FIML and when dropout effects are modeled...
Understanding unfamiliar words in young, young-old, and old-old adults: inferential processing and the abstraction-deficit hypothesisDebra McGinnis
Department of Psychology, University of Southern California, USA
Psychol Aging 18:497-509. 2003..Taken together, these results suggest that age differences in meaning derivation may be related to inferential processing that is overgeneralized, providing support for the abstraction-deficit hypothesis...
