Reminders on your phone can really help clear up your brain and can mitigate age-related memory decline.
As Day.Az reports, this was shown by a study published in the journal Psychology and Aging.
Scientists conducted two experiments involving young and elderly people. They were given specific tasks, for example, they had to respond to certain words. At first they did it on their own, and then with on-screen reminders. The results showed that in the presence of reminders, the memory of young and old people was almost the same. This suggests that reminders can reduce mental stress. With such unloading, it becomes easier for older people to find the necessary facts in their memory.
In the second experiment, the tasks were more difficult. Participants recognized categories, such as animals or fruits, rather than specific words. Older people had greater difficulty performing these tasks. But on-screen reminders improved older people’s performance to match that of younger people.
The authors noted that digital tools, such as phone reminders or personal digital assistants, can be valuable tools for older adults in managing their daily tasks (taking medications, making doctor’s appointments) and maintaining household independence.
