Embodied cognition of aging [PDF]
Embodiment is revolutionizing the way we consider cognition by incorporating the influence of our body and of the current context within cognitive processing. A growing number of studies which support this view of cognition in young adults stands in stark contrast with the lack of evidence in favor of this view in the field of normal aging and ...

Prediction of brain age and cognitive age: Quantifying brain and cognitive maintenance in aging [PDF]
AbstractThe concept of brain maintenance refers to the preservation of brain integrity in older age, while cognitive reserve refers to the capacity to maintain cognition in the presence of neurodegeneration or aging‐related brain changes. While both mechanisms are thought to contribute to individual differences in cognitive function among older adults,

Genes and cognitive aging [PDF]
The search for genetic factors related to late life cognitive change initially focused on cognitive diseases, particularly Alzheimer's disease (AD) and now increasingly employs the method of genome-wide association studies. This approach has repeatedly confirmed the major importance of the Apolipoprotein E polymorphism as a risk factor for AD, but no ...

Individual differences in cognitive performance and brain structure in typically developing children
Individual differences in cognitive patterning is informative in understanding one's cognitive strengths and weaknesses. However, little is known about the difference in brain structures relating to individual differences in cognitive patterning. In this

Cognitive Ability, Cognitive Aging, and Debt Accumulation [PDF]
In the past few decades, financial products target to consumers have become increasingly complex and recent evidence suggests that older adults are entering retirement with more debt than previous generations. We examine how cognitive ability is related to debt burdens among older adults and whether this relationship has changed over time with the ...
