Neural correlates of episodic memory change in increasing age: a longitudinal event-related potential study

Résumé

Using a longitudinal design, we examined whether event-related brain potentials (ERPs) correlates of successful episodic memory retrieval varied over a 4-year period according to the level of memory change. ERPs were recorded while participants performed a word-stem cued-recall task, and this procedure was repeated 4 years later. We compared the ERP old/new effect patterns of participants whose memory performance remained stable over time (stable group) with those of participants experiencing episodic memory decline (decline group). The pattern of change of the old/new effect differed between groups. At T1, the two groups exhibited the same pattern, with a positive frontal and parietal old/new effect. For the decline group, the old/new effect pattern did not change between T1 and T2. By contrast, for the stable group, the positive parietal old/new effect at T1 no longer appeared at T2, but a negative old/new effect was exhibited at frontal sites. This brain reorganization pattern could be a compensatory mechanism supporting strategic processes and allowing memory abilities to be maintained over time.
