  • Biden or Trump? Working memory for emotion predicts the ability to forecast future feelings

    Colleen C Frank, Alexandru D Iordan et al.ARTICLEEmotion2023

    Affective forecasting-the ability to predict how different outcomes will make us feel-is a crucial aspect of making optimal decisions. Recent laboratory evidence suggests that working memory for emotion is a basic psychological mechanism underlying forecasting ability: Individual differences in affective working memory predict how accurately people can forecast their future feelings whereas measures of "cognitive" working memory do not. Here, we …

    Our findings have practical implications by showing that the variation in training schedule, at least within the range used here, does not seem to be a crucial element for training benefits

  • How Does it STAC Up? Revisiting the Scaffolding Theory of Aging and Cognition

    Open AccessPatricia A Reuter‐Lorenz, Patricia A Reuter-Lorenz et al.ARTICLENeuropsychology Review2014

    "The Scaffolding Theory of Aging and Cognition (STAC)", proposed in 2009, is a conceptual model of cognitive aging that integrated evidence from structural and functional neuroimaging to explain how the combined effects of adverse and compensatory neural processes produce varying levels of cognitive function. The model made clear and testable predictions about how different brain variables, both structural and functional, were related to cognitiv…

  • Human Neuroscience and the Aging Mind

    Patricia A Reuter‐Lorenz, P A Reuter-Lorenz et al.ARTICLEThe Journals of Gerontology…2010Cited by: 4References: 3

    In this article, marking the 65th anniversary of the Journal of Gerontology, we offer a broad-brush overview of the new synthesis between neuroscientific and psychological approaches to cognitive aging. We provide a selective review of brain imaging studies and their relevance to mechanisms of cognitive aging first identified primarily from behavioral measurements. We also examine some new key discoveries, including evidence favoring plasticity a…

  • The Adaptive Brain

    Denise C Park, Patricia A Reuter‐Lorenz et al.ARTICLEAnnual Review of Psychology2009

    There are declines with age in speed of processing, working memory, inhibitory function, and long-term memory, as well as decreases in brain structure size and white matter integrity. In the face of these decreases, functional imaging studies have demonstrated, somewhat surprisingly, reliable increases in prefrontal activation. To account for these joint phenomena, we propose the scaffolding theory of aging and cognition (STAC). STAC provides an …

  • Emotion and working memory

    Joseph A Mikels, Patricia A Reuter‐Lorenz et al.ARTICLEEmotion2008

    Working memory is comprised of separable subsystems for visual and verbal information, but what if the information is affective? Does the maintenance of affective information rely on the same processes that maintain nonaffective information? The authors address this question using a novel delayed-response task developed to investigate the short-term maintenance of affective memoranda. Using selective interference methods the authors find that a s…
