On the probability and direction of morphosyntactic lifespan change [PDF]
AbstractThe aim of this study is to further contribute to the ongoing debate regarding the nature of “morphosyntactic lifespan change,” defined here as observable shifts in the grammatical choices individuals make between competing morphosyntactic structures.

Language Change Across the Lifespan [PDF]
Understanding the relationship between language change and variation has progressed considerably over the last several decades, but less is known about how speakers at different life stages deal with ongoing change in their speech communities. Longitudinal studies of individuals and groups reveal three trajectory types postadolescence: stability (the ...

Primary headaches during lifespan [PDF]
Primary headaches are one of the most prevalent neurological disorders and can occur during a wide range of lifespan. Primary headaches, especially migraine, are cyclic disorders with a complex sequence of symptoms within every headache attack.

Fundamental equations linking methylation dynamics to maximum lifespan in mammals [PDF]
We describe a framework that addresses concern that the rate of change in any aging biomarker displays a trivial inverse relation with maximum lifespan. We apply this framework to methylation data from the Mammalian Methylation Consortium.

Topological turning points across the human lifespan [PDF]
Structural topology develops non-linearly across the lifespan and is strongly related to cognitive trajectories. We gathered diffusion imaging from datasets with a collective age range of zero to 90 years old (N = 4,216).

Lifespan changes in postural control
AbstractLifespan development of postural control shows as an inverted U-shaped function with optimal performance in young adults and similar levels of underperformance in children and older adults. However, similarities in children and older adults might conceal differences in underlying control processes.

50 years of British accent bias: Stability and lifespan change in attitudes to accents [PDF]
Do accent biases observed half a century ago (Giles 1970) and 15 years ago (Coupland & Bishop 2007) still hold today in Britain? We provide an updated picture of national attitudes to accent labels by replicating and extending previous studies.

Changes in Cortical Plasticity Across the Lifespan [PDF]
Deterioration of motor and cognitive performance with advancing age is well documented, but its cause remains unknown. Animal studies dating back to the late 1970s reveal that age-associated neurocognitive changes are linked to age-dependent changes in synaptic plasticity, including alterations of long-term potentiation and depression (LTP and LTD ...
