• Abstract: With aging, episodic memory decline starts to accelerate in older adults and they are also more susceptible to false memory. In particular, they are more likely to mistake the new item for the learned one than the young when the former is similar to the latter in sensory details or physical features, that is, showing an age-related increase in perceptual false memory. Previous studies suggest that this may be related to age-related changes in the medial temporal lobe (MTL) and prefrontal cortex (PFC). The present article is endeavored to trace the theoretical interpretation of this phenomenon, and emphasizes the continuity and difference between the Sensory Reactivation hypothesis and the Representational- Hierarchical account, which tries to elucidate the process of eliminating perceptual interference for older adults, so as to systematically understand the formation and aging mechanism of perceptual false memory. 老年人随着增龄，情节记忆下降，错误记忆增加。新项目感觉特征与已学项目相似时，老年人更容易错误再认，形成知觉性错误记忆。这可能与老年人内侧颞叶、前额叶等脑区活动变化相关，以及其基于要义和回想—拒绝加工等认知过程变化相关。通过追溯知觉性错误记忆老化的理论解释，本文强调感觉再激活假说与表征—等级模型等理论发展的连续性与区别性。未来研究可从神经去分化、感觉表征和检索监控过程等方面深入探讨知觉性错误记忆的老化机制。
