Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The purposes of this study were to reveal the characteristics of future event representations aroused by odor and examine how aging affects them. The results showed that future event representations aroused by odor were emotional, positive, and vivid. Further, younger participants were typically aroused by more positive and more important representations than did older participants. Based on these results, we discussed the assistance of a cognitive function using odor stimuli in elder people.
