What are the fundamental mechanisms of decision making, processing
speed, memory and cognitive control? How do these give rise to
individual differences, and how do they change as people age? How
are these mechanisms implemented in neural unctions, in particular
the functions of the frontal lobe? How do they relate to the
demands of everyday, 'real life' behaviour? Over almost five
decades, Pat Rabbitt has been among the most distinguished of
British cognitive psychologists. His work has been widely
influential in theories of mental speed, cognitive control and
aging, influencing research in experimental psychology,
neuropsychology and individual differences. This volume, dedicated
to Pat Rabbitt, brings together a distinguished group of 16
contributors actively pursuing research in the fields of speed,
memory, and control, and the application of these fields to
individual differences and aging. With the latest work from senior
figures in the field, and a focus on fundamental topics in both
teaching and research, the book will be valuable to students and
scientists in experimental psychology and cognitive neuroscience.
