The strategic and associative components of episodic memory show age differences across the lifespan. Which combination of the following statements is correct regarding children (aged 10-12) and older adults (aged 70-75)? (several answers are correct)
Older adults’ associative component is functioning better than children
Older adults undergo decline in the functioning of the strategic component
Children’s associative component is relatively early developed.
Older adults do not show age differences in the associative component
Children tend not to engage in using effective memory strategy spontaneously.
