Content: This is the third volume on aging issued by the American Psychological Association. Once again a substantial amount of information has accumulated that can help to direct our thinking about psychological aging in the next decade. The present volume has multiple purposes: to summarize and put into perspective selected issues on the psychology of aging and to establish research directions for the 1980s; to identify what we now know and what we need to know about nine selected areas in the field of aging; and to provide a framework to guide the deliberations of the participants at two projected conferences on aging--the 1981 White House Conference on Aging, and the 1982 World Assembly on Aging. In attempting to fulfill these purposes I have aimed to present complementary and competing views from researchers and clinicians of different backgrounds. It is intended to serve as a sourcebook to supplement and complement existing literature for researchers, practitioners, clinicians, graduate and postgraduate students, as well as the professionals and the policymakers in the field of aging and allied sciences. Abstracts have been provided to make each chapter accessible to lay readers. Nine major areas of research in aging are explored in this volume: clinical issues, neuropsychological issues, psychophysiological issues, psychopharmacological issues, cognitive issues, stress and coping, environmental issues, interpersonal relations, and methodological issues. For each of these areas, one or more associate editors were directed to identify and review the outstanding issues, to integrate new and old theories and data, and to provide directions for the next steps to be taken by researchers in the 1980s. Most sections of the book were presented in a series of symposia held at the 87th annual meeting of the American Psychological Association in New York City, in September 1979.

Content: This Handbook provides directions to psychologists, psychiatrists, neurologists, and other health care professionals for making informed decisions about clinical memory assessment. The Handbook is intended to answer basic questions about memory diagnosis: What underlying theoretical and clinical issues are important in the selection of an assessment instrument or battery? What types of tests are available, and how have these tests been validated with available theoretical and clinical evidence? /// Although this Handbook concentrates on memory assessment of older adults, many of the issues are also applicable to clinical memory assessment in general. In the care and treatment of the elderly, abnormal decline in both memory and intellectual functioning is a major diagnostic landmark of Alzheimer's disease and related disorders, diseases that are commanding attention from health care professionals and public policymakers alike. Although standardized memory test batteries are available, there is no consensus among clinicians about the selection of tests to identify the loci of memory dysfunction and to evaluate treatment efficacy. These instrument selection issues are also common in the diagnosis of other clinical syndromes in which memory and cognitive functioning are compromised.

Content: Provides a firm theoretical grounding for the increasing movement of cognitive psychologists, neuropsychologists and their students beyond the laboratory, in an attempt to understand human cognitive abilities as they are manifested in natural contexts. The pros and cons of the laboratory and the real world - the problems of generalizability versus rigor - are thoroughly analyzed, and practical escapes from what has become a false dichotomy are suggested. The authors present relevant data that open up new directions for those studying cognitive aging. Finally, they consider the applications of the new knowledge for clinicians and educators
