	abstract = {Extracting repeated patterns from our surroundings plays a crucial role in contextualizing information, making predictions, and guiding our behavior implicitly. Previous research showed that contextual cueing enhances visual search performance in younger adults. In this study, we investigated whether contextual cueing could also improve older adults' performance and whether age-related differences in the neural processes underlying implicit contextual learning could be detected. Twenty-four younger and 25 older participants performed a visual search task with contextual cueing. Contextual information was generated using repeated face configurations alongside random new configurations. We measured RT difference between new and repeated configurations; ERPs to uncover the neural processes underlying contextual cueing for early (N2pc), intermediate (P3b), and late (r-LRP) processes; and multiscale entropy and spectral power density analyses to examine neural dynamics. Both younger and older adults showed similar contextual cueing benefits in their visual search efficiency at the behavioral level. In addition, they showed similar patterns regarding contextual information processing: Repeated face configurations evoked decreased finer timescale entropy (1–20 msec) and higher frequency band power (13–30 Hz) compared with new configurations. However, we detected age-related differences in ERPs: Younger, but not older adults, had larger N2pc and P3b components for repeated compared with new configurations. These results suggest that contextual cueing remains intact with aging. Although attention- and target-evaluation-related ERPs differed between the age groups, the neural dynamics of contextual learning were preserved with aging, as both age groups increasingly utilized more globally grouped representations for repeated face configurations during the learning process.},

	abstract = {Contextual cueing, the implicit learning of the arrangement and dynamics of surrounding stimuli, is a potential candidate for helping everyday visual search situations like finding a person in the crowd. Since implicit learning is more intact than explicit with aging, we were interested if contextual cueing could be beneficial for older adults.
		The experimental task was to find a male face between female faces. After replacing faces with colourful dots, participants had to show the location of the male face using a mouse. 30 blocks were shown and every block contained 12 repeated trials which were identical in every block and 12 new trials which were randomly generated. For the identity-repeat study (the same faces were shown together in the repeated trials but in random positions), we collected 24 young adults’ behavioural data and for the all-repeat study (the same faces appeared in the exact same positions in the repeated trials), we collected 24 younger (18-30 years) and 25 older (60-75 years) adults’ behavioural and EEG data.
		Our results revealed that while the identity-repeat task (object cueing) did not facilitate the younger adult’s performance in the repeated trials, the all-repeat task (spatial cueing) showed increased performance in both age groups for the repeated trials which was detected in faster reaction time, lower error-rate, and increased N2pc component (attention orientation to target) compared to new trials.
		In conclusion, contextual cueing of face stimuli can facilitate visual search performance in both age-groups but only if identity and location information consistently predicts the target.},

	abstract = {Information extracted from the environment influences how well we perform a task. Contextual stimuli are often distractors, irrelevant and possibly detrimental to the task at hand. Context, however, can also have a facilitating effect on performance, e.g., orientation in a familiar environment. We suggest that effective utilization of context may compensate for cognitive functions that deteriorate with age.
		In this study we investigated the effect of spatial context on performance in younger and older adults in the spatial cueing paradigm. Visual displays containing a task-related target and task-irrelevant distractor objects were presented to the participants. Some trials (“repeated”) had the same spatial configuration throughout the session, while the rest (“novel”) always showed new spatial configurations. Similarly to earlier studies, younger adults were progressively faster for “repeated” compared to “novel” trials. The older group showed an identical improvement in reaction time for “repeated” trials. Previous electrophysiological studies attributed this improvement to more effective orientation of covert attention (measured with the N2pc component) and improved response-related processes (measured with the P3 and LRP components). In our study N2pc was overall earlier for “repeated” trials. The P3 was larger for “repeated” trials in the younger group, replicating earlier results. In the older group, however, P3 was larger for “novel” trials. Larger improvement in reaction time correlated positively with larger amplitude difference for both components only in the younger group. While the electrophysiological results suggest different mechanisms, both groups were able to utilize contextual information to improve their performance.},
