Are Age‐Related Differences in Sleep Associated With the Different Trajectories of Fluid and Crystallized Intelligence Across the Lifespan?

Journal of Sleep Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT A common misconception is that, with age, cognition deteriorates across all domains. Instead, certain aspects are negatively impacted, while others are relatively spared, or, continue to improve. Specifically, fluid intelligence (i.e., problem‐solving skills) peaks in early adulthood and declines, whereas crystallized intelligence (i.e ...

Abstract Input variability (i.e., varied experience with different grammar exemplars; “[talk/think/rant/wonder] about [god/bicycles/dogs]”) can improve generalization (i.e., “[Verb] about [Noun]”) and enhance learning. Controlled experiments show that input variability benefits children's generalization and extension of linguistic information from ...
