The objective of this study is to explore characteristics of older adults' beliefs about age-related memory changes for self and others across the adult life span. Especially, the study examines how their beliefs relate with 1) their memory performance in everyday situation and various memory tests, 2) their implicit theory about memory, and 3) social information about health and cognitive aging. The original questionnaires including items asking about the above information and various cognitive tests were administered to the three age groups : 99 young(19-25 years), 97 middle-aged(38-55 years), and 104 older(63-75 years) adults.
