| Abstract:"Objective: Recent studies indicate that HIV infection is associated with deficits in the strategic encoding and retrieval aspects of prospective memory (ProM). ProM is a form of episodic memory involving the ability to execute a future intention, which has important implications for successful day-to-day functioning. The present investigation was undertaken to assess whether HIV-associated ProM deficits accurately predict adherence to antiretroviral (ARV) medication regimens. |
