Abstract
Zusammenfassung. Das prospektive Gedächtnis bezeichnet das Zusammenspiel jener kognitiven Fähigkeiten, die daran beteiligt sind, intendierte Handlungen zu planen und sie später zur adäquaten Gelegenheit selbstständig zu realisieren. In dieser Übersichtsarbeit werden Befunde von Studien erörtert, welche die Entwicklung des prospektiven Erinnerns im Kindes- und Jugendalter und vom jüngeren zum höheren Erwachsenenalter untersuchten. Neben der Identifikation erster konsistenter Trends wird außerdem auf eine paradoxe und bisher noch ungeklärte Befundlage bezüglich des alterskorrelierten Ausführens intendierter Handlungen im Labor und im Alltagsleben hingewiesen. Über die Deskription hinausgehend werden in einem zweiten Teil potenzielle Erklärungsmechanismen der Entwicklung des prospektiven Gedächtnisses über die Lebensspanne identifiziert und kritisch diskutiert.
Abstract.Prospective memory refers to the interplay of cognitive abilities associated with the planning of intended actions and their self-initiated realization at the appropriate instance in the future. In the present review, findings of studies which investigated the development of prospective memory in childhood and adolescence and from early to late adulthood are summarized. Besides the identification of consistent developmental trends, a paradoxical and so far unresolved pattern of findings regarding the age-related execution of intended actions in the laboratory and in everyday life is discussed. After describing the age-related patterns in prospective memory performance, in a second part of the review we identify and discuss potential mechanisms underlying the development of prospective memory across the lifespan.
