Workplace Exposures and Cognitive Function During Adulthood: Evidence From National Survey of Midlife Development and the O*NET
Open accessAbstract
OBJECTIVE: Expand understanding of the role of selected workplace exposures (ie, occupational complexity, conflict in the workplace, pace of work, and physical hazards) in adults' cognitive function. METHODS: Cross-sectional data (n = 1991) from the second wave of the Midlife in the United States (MIDUS) study; restricted to participants who completed telephone-based cognitive assessments of episodic memory, executive functioning, and self-perceived memory. Occupational exposure data were harvested from the ONET Release 6.0. RESULTS: Greater complexity was associated with better self-perceived memory among women and men, and better episodic memory and executive functioning among women. Greater physical hazards were independently associated with poorer episodic memory and executive functioning. CONCLUSIONS: Objective assessments of physical and psychosocial exposures in the workplace are independently associated with cognitive outcomes in adulthood, with psychosocial exposures being particularly pronounced among women.

Having a mentally stimulating job and engaging in other mentally stimulating activities may also help build cognitive reserve.
“Having a mentally stimulating job and engaging in other mentally stimulating activities may also help build cognitive reserve.[154][155][156][157]”
From 2023 Alzheimer's disease facts and figures (2023) · cites this paper as [154]
The Discussion (page unavailable) says occupational complexity may enhance adults’ cognitive reserve, supporting the mentally stimulating job portion. The paper does not establish that other mentally stimulating activities build cognitive reserve; a study of leisure activity appears in its References, but that title alone does not support the additional claim.

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.
