Implementation Intentions Improve Prospective Memory and Inhibition Performances in Older Adults: The Role of Visualization

Abstract: Implementation intentions have been shown to be a very effective strategy in improving prospective memory in older adults. However, their efficacy in improving inhibition has never been assessed in aging. We thus examined the efficacy of implementation intentions in a prospective memory task and an inhibition task in 87 older participants. Following a crossover design, half of the participants were instructed to form an implementation intention in the prospective memory task, the other half in the inhibition t… Show more

“…In identifying dyslexia-related EF problems in adulthood, a responsibility rests on the researcher to move beyond simply cataloguing deficits to determining means by which those impairments can be ameliorated. Whilst there is less evidence related to improving WM and other EFs in early adulthood (see Diamond, 2013, for a review), some of the EF training methods which have been used (such as video game training; e.g., Dahlin, Nyberg, Burkard et al (2014). The beneficial role of reflection and the use of rules in improving EFs have been highlighted by Zelazo (2015).…”

“…Intentional statements follow an “if, then” structure (e.g., “if I see X cue, then I will perform intended action Y”). Several studies report beneficial effects of brief visualization and implementation intentions during encoding for event-based PM (Chasteen et al, 2001; Schnitzpahn & Kliegal 2009; Burkard et al, 2014) and time-based PM (Schnitzpahn & Kliegal 2009) across both healthy (e.g., Meeks & Marsh, 2010) and clinical (e.g., Kardiasmenos et al, 2008) populations. To date, the literature regarding the independent and combined effects of visualization and implementation intentions suggests that the effects of these encoding interventions are not synergistic; that is, using both strategies does not necessarily improve PM performance more than using a single strategy alone (e.g., Meeks & Marsh, 2010; McFarland & Glisky, 2012; cf.…”

“…Also aligned to this argument is the discovery that people who often visualize the future—a tendency that might coincide with future clarity— are more likely to implement their goals and intentions (e.g. Burkard et al, 2014).…”
