Synopsis
Within the last decade there have been significant developments in our understanding of the learning and motivation, together with the conceptual and cognitive development, of older adults. This understanding has been enhanced by findings from longitudinal studies which are now becoming available. These findings demonstrate the gains that have been made in research. In the past, inappropriately conceived studies have led to the perpetuation of myths and stereotypes about the intellectual development of older people. Special attention is paid in this book to changing perceptions of ageing and intelligence, learning aptitude, memory and intelligence testing. The important topic of ageing and wisdom is also discussed.
