“…Touron and Hertzog [2004], for instance, studied age differences in strategy shift in skill acquisition tasks, where the ability to choose the right strategy has been implicated as one of the key features of human cognition [Lemaire, Arnaud, & Lecacheur, 2004]. Results showed age differences in skill acquisition rates, and an inverse relationship between memory load and performance level [for similar results, see Diehl, Willis, & Schaie, 1995;Blanchard-Fields, Chen, & Norris, 1997]. Extensive findings, in multiple domains, have demonstrated that younger adults are faster and more accurate than their older counterparts, and that the gap between the groups diverges even further with increased complexity and cognitive demands.…”
