Selective review of cognitive aging
Open accessAbstract
Research concerned with relations between adult age and cognitive functioning is briefly reviewed. The coverage is necessarily selective, and is organized in terms of five major questions. These are what abilities are related to age, how many distinct influences are contributing to the relations between age and cognitive functioning, do the differences between people increase with advancing age, what is responsible for the discrepancies between cross-sectional and longitudinal age comparisons of cognitive functioning, and what methods can be used to identify causes of age-related influences on cognition. Although definitive answers are not yet possible, quite a bit of information relevant to the questions is now available. Moreover, the existing information has implications for the design, analysis, and interpretation of cognitive and neuropsychological research concerned with aging. ( JINS , 2010, 16 , 754–760.)

Fluid cognitive abilities (e.g., processing speed, attention, executive functioning) decline in late life and can negatively impact older adults' ability to manage day-to-day tasks.
“While crystallized cognition (e.g., acquired knowledge, vocabulary) is relatively preserved in late life, older adults’ ability to successfully manage day-to-day tasks can be negatively impacted by prototypical declines in fluid cognitive abilities (e.g., processing speed, attention, executive functioning) [2–4].”
From Primary outcome from the augmenting cognitive training in older adults study (ACT): A tDCS and cognitive training randomized clinical trial (2023) · cites this paper as [3]
In “What Cognitive Variables and Abilities Are Affected?” (page unavailable), the review describes relatively preserved vocabulary and general information alongside age-related declines in processing efficiency and neuropsychological test performance. It does not establish that these declines impair older adults’ management of day-to-day tasks, and it cautions that speed is distinct from fluid ability in psychometric classifications.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
