Regarding the issue of dementia, one only has to hear his last presentation at APA days before his death to appreciate that Skinner was mentally functioning extremely well. However, he (as many of us on this list!) did begin having memory issues about minor details. One of his most favorably received presentations at APA was on the topic on compensation strategies for all of us to adapt to provide us with additional "cues" so we will remember what we don't want to forget.
