Abstract

In two experiments, the authors explored the minimum preview duration required by younger and older adults to demonstrate a preview benefit. Both experiments used the same range of five preview durations (371 to 586 ms) to discover the minimum critical preview duration required by younger (Experiment 1) and older (Experiment 2) adults. Experiment 1 revealed that a 414-ms preview was sufficient for younger adults to demonstrate a preview effect, which replicated earlier studies. In Experiment 2, we found that older adults required a 586-ms preview to demonstrate a preview effect. General slowing provided a good account of the data.

摘要

在两项实验中，作者探究了年轻人和年长者展现预览效益所需的最短预览持续时间。两项实验均使用了相同范围的五个预览持续时间（371至586毫秒），以发现年轻人（实验1）和年长者（实验2）所需的最短关键预览持续时间。实验1表明，414毫秒的预览时间足以让年轻人展现出预览效果，这重复了早期的研究。在实验2中，我们发现年长者需要586毫秒的预览时间才能展现出预览效果。整体反应迟缓很好地解释了这些数据。
