Abstract:
This study provides information regarding the validity and reliability of the Wood Prospective Meory Test (WPMT), a newly developed test consisting of three main subscales intended to measure prospective memory. Subjects were 69 college students (50 female, 19 male, age range 18-24), who were administered several memory tasks including the WPMT.The results of this study suggest that the subscales of the WPMT do not have sufficient internal reliability (.50, .60, and .44), and therefore, would be unlikely to correlate highly with any other measures.

Abstract:
Prospective memory (PM) is the ability to perform a planned action at a future time, while engaging in unrelated tasks. PM is highly relevant to independent functioning and quality of life. Moreover, PM impairment independently predicts problems in activities of daily living among older adults after accounting for the effects of psychosocial factors and other neurocognitive functions such as retrospective memory (RM) and executive functions. Research has also shown that older adults have moderate declines in PM, assumed to be associated with age-related changes in the prefrontal cortex. Functi

Prospective memory refers to remembering to carry out an intended or planned action, such as keeping a doctor's appointment or telling a friend about an upcoming party. Despite its importance in everyday life, prospective memory has received little empirical or theoretical attention. Rather, much of the literature has focused on retrospective memory, that is, memory for information learnt in the past. The current literature on prospective memory addresses five aspects that are necessary for carrying out an intended action. These are (a) formulating the plan; (b) having the knowledge necessary

Prospective Memory (PM) - memory for a delayed intention - is essential for functioning in everyday life. Event-based PM relies on a cue (eg a postbox) to trigger recall of an intention (eg mail a letter).

Through a series of four articles I address the impact of methodology, pharmacology, and genetics on event-based PM in a laboratory setting. Article I examines the effect of varying PM cue frequency.

Checking compulsions are the most common manifestation of obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), yet the mechanisms which contribute to them are not well understood. According to one prominent theory — the memory deficit theory — individuals’ compulsions to check are fueled by a deficit in memory which makes it difficult for them to remember performing a previous action (e.g., locking a door). The main goal of this dissertation is to examine the link between memory deficits and checking compulsions.

Abstract:
Objective: The present study investigated, for the first time, event- and time-based prospective memory (PM) in the same sample of adults with ADHD within one paradigm using parallel task constraints. Method: A total of 25 individuals with ADHD and 25 matched neurotypical controls completed a computerized version of the Dresden Breakfast Task, which required participants to prepare breakfast following a set of rules and time restrictions. Results: Although groups did not differ in event-based PM, results demonstrated a large-sized impairment in individuals with ADHD in time-based PM. Conclus

Abstract:
Background. Frequent cannabis users have been found to show impaired memory for past events, but it is not clear whether they are also impaired in prospective memory for future events. Aims. To objectively assess prospective memory (PM) in frequent cannabis users (one group dependent on cannabis, and one group non-dependent) compared to non-using controls, and to examine the effects of future event simulation (FES) on PM performance. To explore depression, anxiety and ‘schizotypy’ across groups. Design. An independent groups design. Setting. University College London. Participants. Fifty-four

Abstract:
Prospective memory (PM) refers to memory for future intentions and involves several cognitive processes including memory, executive functions, and attention. PM has been studied extensively in clinical populations in which these cognitive processes are impaired but has only recently been studied in Huntington’s disease (HD), a neurodegenerative disease of the basal ganglia that is associated with neuropsychiatric, movement, and cognitive changes. The purpose of the present study was to further examine PM in HD, as well as investigate the influence of impulsivity on PM performance and whether
