AGE AND BEHAVIOR: PROBLEM SOLVING - COGNITIVE FACTORS – INTELLIGENCE - AGE-INSENSITIVE TASKS
Arenberg (1968) investigated the relationship between problem solving and vocabulary test scores. Thus, as will be recalled from the previous chapter, unlike Young who tested with an age-sensitive intelligence test, Arenberg used an age-insensitive one. Vocabulary function in later life is more a function of what had been achieved than of cognitive integrative or synthesizing abilities. People aged 60-77 years had higher vocabulary scores than younger people aged 17-22, yet the younger people performed better on the problem-solving task.
This task was different from the one that Young used, but Arenberg (1974) found the same thing when he carried out a later study with a problem-solving task very similar to Young's. The task will be described later under the heading "Training for Orderly Search." The task demanded much ability and so, like Young, Arenberg had to select only subjects of high intellectual ability. This may have hidden what relationships do exist between problem solving and intelligence.
This later Arenberg study is unique. It is the only one on problem solving that made both cross-sectional and longitudinal age comparisons, the latter averaging almost seven years. The subjects were between 24 and 87 years at the start; cross-sectionally, those under 60 years performed better than those over 60 years, but longitudinally the results were otherwise. Only with those aged over 70 at the start was decline seen. Selective subject dropout was given as the reason for this. The longitudinal analysis, Arenberg pointed out, was limited to a very select, superior performing sample of problem solvers because only those who were able to solve the tasks during both test and retest sessions could be included in the analysis. Thus, a wide range of ability levels was not tested.
While Arenberg did not observe a relationship between vocabulary test scores and problem-solving ability, Brinley, Jovick, and McLaughlin (1974) did among some of their subjects, but not among all. The difference in results between studies probably rested in the fact that the subjects in the latter study were more typical of the general population than were Arenberg's highly educated subjects. Also, the tasks were different —Arenberg's were much harder.
Brinley et al. tested subjects of wide age range and found vocabulary level related positively to problem-solving ability among the middle aged but not among the young (21-35 years) or the old adults (66 and over). Thus, the generally high performances of the young and the generally low of the old were outside the range of the predictive value of intelligence test scores in regard to problem solving.
Other studies also showed relationships, some indirectly, some clearly. An indirect relationship may be seen in the study by Wetherick (1964).
