Immediate and 15-min delayed recall of semantically related or unrelated word lists was investigated in 144 normally developing children ranging from 5 to 10 years of age. Immediate recall for the related and unrelated lists increased in a parallel fashion as a function of age. The ability to cluster semantically related items during immediate recall also improved with age. However, in no age class recall scores and clustering indexes were significantly associated. Forgetting rate passing from the last immediate to the delayed recall trial increased for the unrelated list but decreased for the related list of words as a function of age. Results of regression analyses revealed that a developmental increase in forgetting on the unrelated list was actually due to the higher number of words recalled in the last immediate trial by older children. As for the related list, instead, the larger reliance on the clustering strategy of recall by older children was responsible for the progressive reduction of forgetting.

Early diagnosis of presenile Alzheimer's disease (AD), which would serve for prognosis and for guiding choices of treatment, is still an important, difficult task for the clinical neurologist. We studied 24 patients, 12 of whom had minor cognitive impairment or questionable dementia (PICD) and 12 who met NINCDS-ADRDA criteria for presenile AD (PAD). Using clinical, neuropsychological, neurophysiological and neuroradiological methods, we followed the patients up to two disease end-points: death or untestable condition. This paper concentrates on the main clinical and neuropsychological findings relative to these two end-points. All PAD patients evolved into clinically evident Alzheimer-type dementia, became untestable within 60 months and died within 72 months. Only 3 of the PICD patients became demented; 2 of them died during the follow-up and 1 died eight months later. The other 9 PICD patients showed only moderate cognitive decline, compatible with normal aging processes. Neurophysiological and neuroradiological findings might be an important tool for arriving at a correct early diagnosis, when they are assessed with clinical neuropsychological data.
