| DEMENTIA | MEMORY | TASK ANALYSISSummary: Investigated the effect of increasing the number of stimuli to be recalled to evaluate whether sensitivity for memory impairment was enhanced in adults with Down syndrome when using higher task load. Compared three levels of load across three groups of adults: those with cognitive deterioration, no cognitive deterioration over age 40, and no cognitive-deterioration under 40. Discusses implications for identification of dementia and age-related cognitive change.
