DE CORRER A ESQUECER: A INFLUÊNCIA DA QUANTIDADE DE MOVIMENTO DE VERBOS NO PROCESSAMENTO SEMÂNTICO FEITO POR JOVENS E IDOSOS SAUDÁVEIS
Processamento léxico-semântico em indivíduos jovens e idosos
Palavras-chave:
memória semântica, processamento lexical, pessoa idosaResumo
A memória semântica está diretamente ligada às nossas habilidades de nos referirmos e conhecermos os termos do ambiente à nossa volta. Diante do envelhecimento típico é possível que haja determinados tipos de déficit nessa habilidade, principalmente, quando estamos diante de tarefas de processamento linguístico mais complexas. Para aferir a presença dessas possíveis diferenças, 68 adultos saudáveis (18 ± 80 anos), divididos entre 31 jovens (20 mulheres, média de idade de 28,25 anos (SD=6.69)) e 37 idosos (26 mulheres, média de idade de 66 anos (SD=5.39)) realizaram uma tarefa de julgamento semântico, a partir de pares de verbos com e sem associação semântica entre si, organizados em blocos de pouco, médio e muito movimento. Uma análise de covariância de uma via (ANCOVA) foi conduzida para determinar se havia diferença estatística significativa entre quantidade de movimento e idade e tempo de reação controladas pelas variáveis psicolinguísticas dos estímulos (frequência, extensão, familiaridade, especificidade, senso corporal, associação semântica e imageabilidade). Os resultados apontam para um aumento do tempo de resposta de acordo com a idade, sugerindo, ainda, que a quantidade de movimento influencia o processamento semântico de verbos de ação, independente da idade.
