From the present to the future. Commentary on Luszcz and Bryan.
Recent research on aging and memory is admirably reviewed in the article by Luszcz and Bryan. In particular, they clearly describe the major theoretical perspectives proposed to account for the relations between age and memory at the current time. This commentary focuses on several issues that seem likely to emerge as important themes in future research in this area, such as construct validity and multivariate analytical procedures.
