Abstract:SAs performed better on tests of language and memory than TAs. They also performed better on a measure of premorbid IQ despite equivalent education. These findings may support the theory that superior memory in older adults reflects higher cognitive reserve; however, studies with larger sample sizes must be conducted in order to explore this possibility further. Future studies should also explore longitudinal outcomes and examine these relationships in a more diverse sample.
