Sandrine Vanneste serves as Assistant Professor of Psychology and Head of the Psychology Department at François-Rabelais University in Tours, France. Her academic work centers on cognitive aging research within the university's Cognition and Learning Research Center (CeRCA) and the Aging and Psychopathology of Memory (ViPsyM) research group.
Her research investigates temporal cognition in aging populations, with primary focus on prospective memory mechanisms, time estimation accuracy, and executive functioning's role in cognitive decline. She examines how internal clock processes interact with working memory during duration reproduction tasks among elderly subjects, exploring compensatory strategies like clock monitoring in time-based prospective memory paradigms. Her methodology combines experimental neuropsychological approaches with collaborations including Alexia Baudouin's team at University of Paris Descartes.
Publications from 2006-2015 reveal consistent investigation into age-related cognitive changes, particularly how executive functions mediate memory performance in cued-recall tests and duration reproduction tasks. Her work demonstrates that working memory capacity significantly impacts time estimation accuracy in older adults, while fluid intelligence modulates strategic retrieval processes during aging.
