Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In study 1, we investigated whether age and gender differences show the three functions of autobiographical memory. Participants (N = 1070, ages 15-79) completed the original Thinking about Life Experiences (TALE) Questionnaire. Two-way ANOVAs (gender (2) x age group(7)) were conducted using total score for each functions as the dependent variables. For an effect of gender, females reported higher levels of the self-function and social-function than males. For an effect of age, young adults reported higher levels of all three functions than older adults. In study 2, participants (N = 190, ages 18-59) were asked to recall three vivid memories, then they rated each memory using TALE Japanese version. Participants were divided into three age groups. Two-way ANOVAs (age group (3) x order (3)) were conducted with the same way as study 1. For an effect of age, young adults reported lower levels of the self-function and social-function than older adults.
