Older adults do not show enhanced benefits from multisensory information on speeded perceptual discrimination tasks (2024)
Journal Article
Atkin, C., Stacey, J. E., Allen, H. A., Henshaw, H., Roberts, K. L., & Badham, S. P. (2024). Older adults do not show enhanced benefits from multisensory information on speeded perceptual discrimination tasks. Neurobiology of Aging, 142, 65-72. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.neurobiolaging.2024.08.003

Some research has shown that older adults benefit more from multisensory information than do young adults. However, more recent evidence has shown that the multisensory age benefit varies considerably across tasks. In the current study, older (65 – 8...

Memory for health information: Influences of age, hearing aids, and multisensory presentation (2024)
Journal Article
Stacey, J., Atkin, C., Roberts, K. L., Henshaw, H., ALLEN, H., & Badham, S. P. (in press). Memory for health information: Influences of age, hearing aids, and multisensory presentation. Quarterly Journal of Experimental Psychology,

Background. We investigated how presenting online health information in different modalities can influence memory, as this may be particularly important for older adults who may need to make regular decisions about health, and could also face additio...

Age Deficits in Associative Memory Are Not Alleviated by Multisensory Paradigms (2024)
Journal Article
Badham, S. P., Atkin, C., Stacey, J. E., Henshaw, H., Allen, H. A., & Roberts, K. L. (2024). Age Deficits in Associative Memory Are Not Alleviated by Multisensory Paradigms. Journals of Gerontology, Series B, 79(7), Article gbae063. https://doi.org/10.1093/geronb/gbae063

OBJECTIVES: Age deficits in memory are widespread, this affects individuals at a personal level, and investigating memory has been a key focus in cognitive aging research. Age deficits occur in memory for an episode, where information from the enviro... Read More about Age Deficits in Associative Memory Are Not Alleviated by Multisensory Paradigms.
