Fig. 6. The semantic representation of risk across age.

(A) Proportion of retrievals falling into each of the five components across the different age groups. (B) Word-level changes in retrieval frequencies of words in terms of the linear effect of age. Specifically, the panel shows the unstandardized effect of a predictor coding age group predicting the log-scaled relative retrieval frequencies. Words in bold showed a significant age difference in retrieval frequencies at the 0.05 level as determined by a log linear model.
