Selective feature contribution to the age-related increase in total content. (A) Subjects of all ages reported more AM elements related to Places, Things, and People, and fewer related to Episodes, Contexts, and Times (Younger subjects: 18–45 years old; older subjects: 46–78 years old). Older adults reported more elements within all features (the age-related increase is statistically significant unless marked as ns; error bars: SEM). (B) Episodes and Things showed the most prominent age-related increase, as People and Times stayed close to that observed in younger adults. The dashed line indicates the overall age-related increase in total content (∼16%). (C) The observed increase in total reported content from younger to older subjects (∼4 elements; see Figure 2) was largely composed of Things, Episodes, and Details.
