Prospective Memory: Effects of divided attention on spontaneous retrieval
Memory & Cognition, 2014Co-Authors: Tyler L. Harrison, Hillary G. Mullet, Katie N. Whiffen, Hunter Ousterhout, Gilles O. EinsteinAbstract:We examined the effects of divided attention on the spontaneous retrieval of a Prospective Memory intention. Participants performed an ongoing lexical decision task with an embedded Prospective Memory demand, and also performed a divided-attention task during some segments of lexical decision trials. In all experiments, monitoring was highly discouraged, and we observed no evidence that participants engaged monitoring processes. In Experiment 1 , performing a moderately demanding divided-attention task (a digit detection task) did not affect Prospective Memory performance. In Experiment 2 , performing a more challenging divided-attention task (random number generation) impaired Prospective Memory. Experiment 3 showed that this impairment was eliminated when the Prospective Memory cue was perceptually salient. Taken together, the results indicate that spontaneous retrieval is not automatic and that challenging divided-attention tasks interfere with spontaneous retrieval and not with the execution of a retrieved intention.

Prospective Memory: Processes, Lifespan Changes, and Neuroscience
Learning and Memory: A Comprehensive Reference, 2008Co-Authors: Gilles O. Einstein, M A Mcdaniel, R.l. Marsh, R. WestAbstract:Prospective Memory or Memory for actions to be performed in the future is critical to everyday life and yet has been virtually ignored by researchers until recently. Relative to typically studied retrospective Memory tasks, Prospective Memory retrieval is self-initiated in the sense that a person must remember to perform an intended action without an external request to search Memory. This self-initiated characteristic has implications for understanding how retrieval occurs, the storage dynamics of Prospective memories, and the optimal encoding strategies. We comprehensively review major theories and evidence on these issues as well as explore developmental changes in Prospective Memory. Finally, we review the neural processes underlying Prospective Memory.

Prospective Memory: Multiple retrieval processes
Current Directions in Psychological Science, 2005Co-Authors: Gilles O. Einstein, M A McdanielAbstract:An interesting challenge for researchers who study Prospective Memory is to explain how people recognize environmental events as cues for actions. Whereas some theorists propose that a capacity-consuming monitoring process is the only means by which intentions can be retrieved, we argue that the cognitive system relies on multiple processes, including spontaneous processes that reflexively respond to the presence of target events. We present evidence for the existence of spontaneous retrieval processes and apply the idea of multiple processes to mixed findings on age-related decline in Prospective Memory.

Varying the importance of a Prospective Memory task: Differential effects across time- and event-based Prospective Memory
Memory, 2001Co-Authors: Matthias Kliegel, M A Mcdaniel, M. Martin, Gilles O. EinsteinAbstract:Only few studies have addressed the issue of task importance in Prospective Memory. Most of them, but not all, have shown that perceived task importance does improve Prospective Memory performance. However, there is little understanding of (1) the conditions under which importance of the Prospective Memory task makes a difference in performance and (2) the mechanisms by which perceived task importance has an effect on Prospective Memory performance. The present study reports two experiments that manipulate task importance in a time-based and an event-based Prospective Memory paradigm. Results show that importance has an effect on the time-based but not on the event-based task. Further analyses of the performance in the cover tasks as well as the monitoring behaviour indicate that importance improves Prospective Memory to the degree the task requires the strategic allocation of attentional resources.

Prospective Memory: When reminders fail
Memory and Cognition, 1998Co-Authors: Melissa J. Guynn, M A Mcdaniel, Gilles O. EinsteinAbstract:A frequent assumption in the area of Prospective Memory is that a reminder to do an activity in the future improves the likelihood of doing the activity. The results of four experiments indicated, however, that the most general version of this assumption is incorrect. Subjects were either reminded of a Prospective Memory task several times during a retention interval or not reminded of the Prospective Memory task. The most effective reminders referred both to the Prospective Memory target events and to the intended activity. Reminders that referred only to the target events did not improve Prospective Memory (relative to a no-reminder control). Reminders that referred only to the intended activity did improve Prospective Memory, but not to the level of reminders that referred both to the target events and to the intended activity. Instructions to imagine oneself performing the Prospective Memory task did not further improve Prospective Memory. Neither the delay between the Prospective Memory instructions and the Prospective Memory cover task nor the delay between a reminder and a Prospective Memory target event significantly influenced performance. The results, which are discussed in terms of theoretical and practical implications, support a new theory of Prospective Memory and suggest surprising conditions under which reminders fail to benefit Prospective Memory.

Normal aging and Prospective Memory.
Journal of experimental psychology. Learning memory and cognition, 1990Co-Authors: Gilles O. Einstein, M A McdanielAbstract:We develop a laboratory paradigm for studying Prospective Memory and examine whether or not this type of Memory is especially difficult for the elderly. In two experiments, young and old subjects were given a Prospective Memory test (they were asked to perform an action when a target event occurred) and three tests of retrospective Memory (short-term Memory, free recall, and recognition). From the perspective that aging disrupts mainly self-initiated retrieval processes, large age-related decrements in Prospective Memory were anticipated. However, despite showing reliable age differences on retrospective Memory tests, both experiments showed no age deficits in Prospective Memory. Moreover, regression analyses produced no reliable relation between the Prospective and retrospective Memory tasks. Also, the experiments showed that external aids and unfamiliar target events benefit Prospective Memory performance. These results suggest some basic differences between Prospective and retrospective Memory.

the dynamic multiprocess framework evidence from Prospective Memory with contextual variability
Cognitive Psychology, 2013Co-Authors: Michael K Scullin, Mark A. Mcdaniel, Jill Talley SheltonAbstract:The ability to remember to execute delayed intentions is referred to as Prospective Memory. Previous theoretical and empirical work has focused on isolating whether a particular Prospective Memory task is supported either by effortful monitoring processes or by cue-driven spontaneous processes. In the present work, we advance the Dynamic Multiprocess Framework, which contends that both monitoring and spontaneous retrieval may be utilized dynamically to support Prospective remembering. To capture the dynamic interplay between monitoring and spontaneous retrieval, we had participants perform many ongoing tasks and told them that their Prospective Memory cue may occur in any context. Following either a 20-min or a 12-h retention interval, the Prospective Memory cues were presented infrequently across three separate ongoing tasks. The monitoring patterns (measured as ongoing task cost relative to a between-subjects control condition) were consistent and robust across the three contexts. There was no evidence for monitoring prior to the initial Prospective Memory cue; however, individuals who successfully spontaneously retrieved the Prospective Memory intention, thereby realizing that Prospective Memory cues could be expected within that context, subsequently monitored. These data support the Dynamic Multiprocess Framework, which contends that individuals will engage monitoring when Prospective Memory cues are expected, disengage monitoring when cues are not expected, and that when monitoring is disengaged, a probabilistic spontaneous retrieval mechanism can support Prospective remembering.

whoops i did it again commission errors in Prospective Memory
Psychology and Aging, 2012Co-Authors: Michael K Scullin, Julie M Bugg, Mark A. McdanielAbstract:Prospective Memory research almost exclusively examines remembering to execute an intention, but the ability to forget completed intentions may be similarly important. We had younger and older adults perform a Prospective Memory task (press Q when you see corn or dancer) and then told them that the intention was completed. Participants later performed a lexical-decision task (Phase 2) in which the Prospective Memory cues reappeared. Initial Prospective Memory performance was similar between age groups, but older adults were more likely than younger adults to press Q during Phase 2 (i.e., commission errors). This study provides the first experimental demonstration of event-based Prospective Memory commission errors after all Prospective Memory tasks are finished and identifies multiple factors that increase risk for commission errors.

the neuropsychology of Prospective Memory in normal aging a componential approach
Neuropsychologia, 2011Co-Authors: Mark A. Mcdaniel, Gilles O EinsteiAbstract:To guide understanding of the neuropsychology of Prospective Memory and aging, we highlight several components of Prospective Memory, including planning an intended action, retrieving the action at the appropriate moment, and executing the action. We posit that frontal systems are particularly important for Prospective Memory tasks that require planning, that require strategic monitoring to detect the appropriate moment for executing the Prospective Memory intention, or for which execution of the retrieved intention must be delayed briefly. Drawing from a variety of approaches, including neuroimaging (with young adults) and studies examining individual differences relating to frontal functioning, we assemble preliminary evidence that supports this hypothesis. Further, because aging especially disrupts frontal functioning, the above noted Prospective Memory tasks would thus be expected to display the greatest age-related decline. The available literature confirms this expectation. A second key hypothesis is that some Prospective Memory tasks—those requiring minimal planning and supporting spontaneous retrieval—do not rely extensively on frontal processes but instead rely on medial-temporal structures for reflexive retrieval. These Prospective Memory tasks tend to show minimal or no age-related decline. The literature, though sparse with regard to the neuropsychological underpinnings of this kind of Prospective Memory task, is consistent with the present hypothesis.

implementation intention encoding does not automatize Prospective Memory responding
Memory & Cognition, 2010Co-Authors: Mark A. Mcdaniel, Michael K ScullinAbstract:An implementation intention encoding, one that specifies the concrete situation that is appropriate for initiating an intended action and links that situational cue to the intended action, has been shown to improve Prospective Memory. One proposed mechanism is that implementation intentions create automatized Prospective remembering. This view anticipates that implementation intentions should prevent Prospective Memory decline in highly cognitively demanding situations. Contrary to this expectation, although implementation intention encoding enhanced Prospective Memory (Experiments 1 and 2), implementation-intention encoding did not buffer against significant Prospective Memory decline in high-cognitive-demand conditions (Experiments 1–3), and in Experiment 3, implementation intention encoding produced lower levels of Prospective Memory performance than did behavioral practice in the high-cognitive-demand situation. We suggest that although implementation intentions may stimulate a strong associative encoding (between an anticipated environmental cue and an intended action), that encoding does not support a completely automatized Prospective Memory response.

age related impairment in an event based Prospective Memory task
Psychology and Aging, 1996Co-Authors: Elizabeth A. MaylorAbstract:Slides of famous people were presented to participants with the instructions to name each face and circle the trial number if the person was wearing glasses (Prospective-Memory target event). Participants in their 50s and 60s (n = 56) were more successful than participants in their 70s and 80s (n = 59) at both the naming an Prospective-Memory tasks. An age-related increase in the probability of forgetting replicated an earlier Prospective-Memory study (E. A. Maylor, 1993); in the present case, there was also an age-related decrease in the probability of recovery. These effects of age remained significant after other measures of current ability were taken into account, including intelligence, speed, and naming performance. For participants who were in both the earlier study (E. A. Maylor, 1993) and this study (n = 65), the correlation between Prospective-Memory performance on the 2 occasions was significant but only for younger participants. Performance in the Prospective-Memory task was entirely unrelated to performance in the naming task.

Prospective Memory in normal ageing and dementia.
Neurocase, 1995Co-Authors: Elizabeth A. MaylorAbstract:Two proposals are critically examined in this review: (i) Prospective Memory (remembering to remember) is spared in normal ageing, and (ii) prospectlve Memory is particularly impaired in abnormal ageing or dementia. For normal ageing, it seems that there are circumstances in which the elderly can perform Prospective Memory tasks as well as the young; however, this does not necessarily indicate that Prospective Memory itself is unaffected by old age. It is argued that, in at least two respects, Prospective Memory is even more impaired In the elderly than retrospective Memory. For abnormal ageing, there appears to be insufficient evidence to conclude that Prospective Memory is more vulnerable in the early stages of dementia than retrospective Memory. Finally, some questions are raised for future research.

Predictors of time-based Prospective Memory in children.
Journal of Experimental Child Psychology, 2009Co-Authors: Rachael J. Mackinlay, Matthias Kliegel, Timo MäntyläAbstract:This study identified age differences in time-based Prospective Memory performance in school-aged children and explored possible cognitive correlates of age-related performance. A total of 56 7- to 12-year-olds performed a Prospective Memory task in which Prospective Memory accuracy, ongoing task performance, and time monitoring were assessed. Additional tests of time estimation, working Memory, task switching, and planning were performed. Results showed a robust relationship between age and Prospective Memory performance even after controlling for ongoing task performance. Developmental differences in time monitoring were also observed, with older children generally adopting a more strategic monitoring strategy than younger children. The majority of age-related variance in Prospective Memory task performance could be explained by cognitive resources, in particular planning and task switching. In contrast, no further independent contribution of time estimation was observed. Findings are in line with the development of strategic behavior, as well as executive functioning, in school-aged children.

Prospective Memory performance in preschoolers: Inhibitory control matters
European Journal of Developmental Psychology, 2008Co-Authors: Lijuan Wang, Matthias Kliegel, Wei Liu, Zhiliang YangAbstract:The present study focuses on Prospective Memory in preschoolers. We specifically investigated the effects of age, retrospective Memory, and task interruption on Prospective Memory performance. In the first experiment, testing 60 children aged 3, 4 and 5 years with a Prospective Memory task that required active ongoing task interruption we obtained an age effect indicating better Prospective Memory performance for the two older cohorts. Varying retrospective Memory load did influence Prospective Memory response time but did not affect Prospective Memory accuracy. However, retrospective Memory performance showed an age effect and individual differences in retrospective Memory ability were related to individual differences in Prospective Memory performance, even after partialling age. In the second study, we applied a Prospective Memory task that did not require active ongoing task interruption. Here, testing 62 children aged 3, 4 and 5 years we still found an age effect in retrospective Memory but neither a...

Prospective Memory in schizophrenia: primary or secondary impairment?
Schizophrenia Research, 2007Co-Authors: Julie D. Henry, Matthias Kliegel, Peter G. Rendell, Mareike AltgassenAbstract:Although a number of studies have now shown that schizophrenia is associated with impaired Memory for future intentions (Prospective Memory), the degree and nature of the impairment remains to be clarified, as does the degree to which this impairment is secondary to deficits in other aspects of cognition. In the present study thirty participants with schizophrenia were compared with demographically matched controls on Virtual Week, a measure that closely represents the types of Prospective Memory tasks that actually occur in everyday life, and provides an opportunity to investigate the different sorts of Prospective Memory failures that occur. Participants with schizophrenia were significantly and comparably impaired on Virtual Week, irrespective of the specific Prospective Memory task demands. Importantly, after controlling for general cognitive functioning, executive functioning and retrospective Memory, although the absolute magnitude of the deficit was reduced, significant impairment remained. These results suggest that individuals with schizophrenia experience generalized difficulties with Prospective Memory, and that whilst other cognitive deficits contribute to these difficulties, there is something unique to Prospective remembering that is additionally disrupted in schizophrenia.

Prospective Memory Complaints Can Be Predicted by Prospective Memory Performance in Older Adults
Dementia and Geriatric Cognitive Disorders, 2006Co-Authors: Melanie Zeintl, Matthias Kliegel, Philippe Rast, Daniel ZimprichAbstract:Background/Aims: The aim of this study was to explore if Prospective Memory complaints reflect actual Prospective Memory performance in older adults. Methods: Three hundred and sixty-four older adults aged 65–80 years were investigated with regard to Prospective Memory complaints, Prospective Memory test performance, self-reported depressive symptoms, and self-reported Memory capacity. Results: Separate analyses revealed that about half of the participants showed a significant relation between subjective and objective Prospective Memory. Conclusion: Older adults appear to be heterogeneous with regard to the association between objective and subjective Prospective Memory. For older adults with relatively few depressive symptoms and Memory concerns, Prospective Memory complaints may serve as a valid criterion in the assessment of Prospective Memory ability.
