AGE AND BEHAVIOR: AIDS AND TYPES OF LEARNING – CATEGORIZATION - NOTE WRITING
Mediation techniques hold much promise, as do the organizational plans. They help in integrating material so that it can more easily be managed. The common technique of note writing is also very helpful in integrating material, and it is most useful in lightening the burden of recall. It would seem that writing notes for oneself would be a natural aid that older people would use frequently, simply because it is so easy, so obvious, and helpful. This does not appear to be the case. While note writing has not been investigated systematically, there are data showing that as useful as this aid could be, older people as a group either do not or cannot take advantage of it.
There appear to be only three specific, even though brief, references to note writing; many more studies would be useful. These references were discussed in the chapter on problem solving. The first was by Welford (1958) who reported that good performance was correlated with note writing as self-aids. Both performance levels and frequency of note writing were seen to decrease with age. The second reference was by Jerome (1962). He tried to teach and encourage his subjects to take notes, to write them down. He found that younger subjects found notes helpful, but the older subjects did not. The older subjects could not make use of their notes and, moreover, saw no reason for writing them. When they did write notes, often they were indecipherable, even to themselves. Young (1966), the third reference, followed up Jerome's study with similar results.
How universal is this finding? What factors underlie it? What methods would succeed in teaching older people to avail themselves of so simple yet so effective a technique? This brief section is more for the purpose of emphasizing an important and potentially fruitful area of investigation than it is for describing an area of research accomplishment. As indicated, there has been very little done to investigate this very available self-aid.
