Apr 1, 2024 · This article overviews these multidirectional trajectories, the heterogeneous factors that moderate the rate of change across individual trajectories, and the extensive literature that has investigated the most important factors, such as working memory, that constrain cognition across the adult lifespan.
Dec 1, 2015 · Until the 1990s, most aging research examined cognitive abilities of adults younger than 80. More recent research includes the fast-growing 80s-and-older population, and has advanced our understanding of cognitive changes in the elderly.

Recent research studies of cognition, aging and the brain have enriched our understanding of the aging process, and also specified more clearly the nature of age-related differences in memory and its neural underpinnings.
May 1, 2012 · Here, we discuss a complementary concept, that of brain maintenance (or relative lack of brain pathology), and argue that it constitutes the primary determinant of successful memory aging. We discuss evidence for brain maintenance at different levels: cellular, neurochemical, gray- and white-matter integrity, and systems-level activation patterns.
Oct 19, 2023 · Aging is well established to promote the deterioration of cognitive function and is the primary risk factor for the development of prevalent neurological disorders. Even in the absence of...
