Recall and Recognition of Old Information in Relation to Age and Sex.

Botwinick, Jack; Storandt, Martha

Journal of Gerontology, v35 n1 p70-76 Jan 1980

Recall and recognition were tested in adults from each of six age decades. Memory test items occurred long ago. The difference between recall and recognition memory for this type of information was similar for all age groups. Retrieval deficits as a function of age were not observed. (Author/BEF)
