Abstract(in English)	The present article reviewed my recent studies on cognitive functions of aged monkeys as aging models of cognition. Formation of learning set as meta-learning and working memory related effects of cues in position recognition tasks were studied. These results suggest that learning in the aged monkeys was heavily dependent on the contextual cues, even if these cues were irrelevant in a task. Some complex cognitive abilities such as an abstraction of information and the memory retention declines, however, the aged monkeys of better performance can compensate their cognitive abilities using external, behavioral and concrete cues.
