This study was designed to examine cognitive rigidity in normally healthy elderly adults, aged 63 to 92, from the viewpoint of self-regulation. The tasks in Experiment I were to classify various blocks according to one dimention first, then a different dimention. The results were as follows. 1) Subjects often rigidily continued to classify blocks with the same category. 2) The rigidity was attributed to two kinds of difficulties. One was a difficulty in the formation of intentions. The other was a difficulty in translating intentions into corresponding actions. Experiment II was designed to examine the difficulty of translating intentions into actions. The results were as follows : If the requested actions conflicted with other environmental stimulation and impaired perceptual harmony, the translation of intention into action was easily interfered with.
