The Attentional Boost Effect in Older Adults: Examining the Vulnerable Boost Hypothesis.
Exp Aging Res

Department of Psychology, University Sapienza of Rome, Rome, Italy.
Introduction: The Attentional Boost Effect (ABE) occurs whenever participants recognize stimuli paired earlier with to-be-responded targets better than stimuli earlier paired with to-be-ignored distractors or presented on their own (baseline). Previous studies showed that the ABE does not occur in older adults when the encoding time is too short (500 ms/word) or when encoding is incidental, likely due to aging-related reductions in cognitive resources or limitations of processing speed.
Method: In the present study, younger and older adults encoded words presented for 1000 ms under intentional instructions.

In this study, we examined whether participants were able to provide contact tracing information and whether their memories were influenced by salient events occurring during the initial phases of the pandemic.

We tested the validity of two alternative accounts of the Attentional Boost Effect (ABE) - the finding that words associated with to-be-responded targets are recognized better than words associated with to-be-ignored distractors. The hypothesis assumes that, during recognition, participants probe their memories for distinctive information confirming that a word was studied (e.g.
