Which of the following topics would be especially interesting to child psychologists who want to investigate theory of mind?
 
  a. Do children realize that parents can remember a longer list of words than children do?
  b. Which is a more effective memory strategy for 10-year-olds, imagery or organization?
  c. Do children perform better on implicit-memory tasks or explicit-memory tasks?
  d. Can utilization deficit explain children's poor performance on recall tasks?

Question 2

The discussion of working memory in elderly people pointed out that
 
  a. elderly people and young adults do not seem to differ on any measures of working memory.
  b. elderly people show consistent deficits on working-memory tasks, in comparison with young adults.
  c. elderly people and young adults are most different from each other on easy working memory tasks.
  d. elderly people and young adults are most different from each other on difficult working memory tasks.

Question 3

Your textbook compares prospective memory in younger adults and older adults. The research typically shows that elderly adults
 
  a. make fewer prospective-memory errors, probably because they have developed effective strategies for remembering to do things in the future.
  b. make fewer prospective-memory errors, probably because retired adults do not need to remember so many work-related responsibilities.
  c. make more prospective-memory errors, probably because this kind of memory task is mostly based on working memory, and elderly people often have trouble with working memory.
  d. make more prospective-memory errors, probably because this kind of task is mostly based on implicit memory, and elderly people often have trouble with implicit memory.
