Elect Ben Tison N.C. Senate - ■ Paid lor by Ben Toon lor Senate Committee_ As You Get Older Will Your Memory Decline? By Karen Watson Special To The Post Will your memory de cline as you get older? Drs. Denise Park and Thomas Puglisi of the University of North Carolina at Char lotte’s Psychology Depart ment have been involved in looking at that and other memory research ques tions for several years. Their work is sponsored by a research grant from the National Institute on Aging for the study of me mory processes in humans across the life span. The Park and Puglisi research compares the dif ferences between picture and word memory in older adults. They map out the components that make pic tures and words me morable and which com ponents decline in impact with age. To determine what makes a picture me morable, Park and Puglisi have developed well over 1,000 slides of words and pictures in which various components such as color and background are changed. Much of the re search grant goes towards the development of these senes of slides. According to Dr. Puglisi, the prepa ration of the slides is both “difficult and time con suming.” Volunteers are studied for their responses to the slides.
