Cognitive decline in aging was studied by presenting four tasks involving short-term memory to young and old adults: digit span forward, missing scan, randomization span, and randomization span visual. Results showed that performance declined significantly with age in the latter two tasks, which require subjective ordering of a sequence of responses, and not in the first two tasks, which involve reproduction of a presented sequence and searching and comparison processes.
顺背数字广度、遗漏扫描、随机化广度和视觉随机化广度。结果表明，在需要对一系列反应进行主观排序的后两项任务中，表现随年龄显著下降，而在前两项涉及再现呈现序列以及搜索和比较过程的任务中则没有下降。
