{ "pk": 21592, "title": "Investigating the longevity of real-world memory following a smartphone intervention in older adults: A multi-year follow-up study", "subtitle": null, "abstract": "Our ability to re-experience the events from our personal past tends to decline with age, which can have profound effects on well-being. HippoCamera is a smartphone-based application developed to mitigate age-related decline by guiding users to record and review cues for real-world events using established mnemonic strategies, with previous work demonstrating improved episodic recollection and enhanced hippocampal activity following use. Here, we followed-up with older adult participants who had used HippoCamera several years prior to investigate whether any benefits persisted following use. Using a mixed-methods approach, we found stronger subjective re-experiencing of events that were recorded with HippoCamera compared to those that were not. Further, participants reported extended benefits to their overall sense of meaning and well-being. These results provide preliminary evidence characterizing the long-lasting effects of a smartphone-based tool that improves memory for everyday events in aging.", "language": "eng", "license": { "name": "", "short_name": "", "text": null, "url": "" }, "keywords": [ { "word": "Cognitive Neuroscience; Psychology; Externally-supported cognition; Memory" } ], "section": "Papers with Poster Presentation", "is_remote": true, "remote_url": "https://escholarship.org/uc/item/1z35d05c", "frozenauthors": [ { "first_name": "Bryan", "middle_name": "", "last_name": "Hong", "name_suffix": "", "institution": "University of Toronto", "department": "" }, { "first_name": "Miranda", "middle_name": "", "last_name": "Chang", "name_suffix": "", "institution": "University of Toronto", "department": "" }, { "first_name": "Eliza", "middle_name": "", "last_name": "McCann", "name_suffix": "", "institution": "University of Toronto", "department": "" }, { "first_name": "Morgan", "middle_name": "", "last_name": "Barense", "name_suffix": "", "institution": "University of Toronto", "department": "" } ], "date_submitted": null, "date_accepted": null, "date_published": "2024-01-01T18:00:00Z", "render_galley": null, "galleys": [ { "label": "PDF", "type": "pdf", "path": "https://journalpub.escholarship.org/cognitivesciencesociety/article/21592/galley/11191/download/" }, { "label": "PDF", "type": "pdf", "path": "https://journalpub.escholarship.org/cognitivesciencesociety/article/21592/galley/21985/download/" } ] }
