The first aim of this thesis was to examine the self-reference effect (SRE) on memory in aging, amnestic mild cognitive impairment (aMCI) and early-stage of Alzheimer’s disease (AD). The second aim was to review the whole literature on the SRE and to attempt understanding its mechanisms. We showed that the SRE on semantic summary representations of one’s traits (which is a component of identity) was preserved in aging. Besides, we showed that depth of processing, which was hitherto regarded as the mechanism responsible for the SRE, did not actually play a role in the latter. By contrast, the interaction of age and self-esteem, as well as individuals’ life experiences modulated the SRE. We showed that the SRE resulted from two processes: the...
