Publication Abstract Display | Type: Poster | Title: Cognitive performance and Alzheimer’s Disease biomarkers in superaging and normal older adults. | Authors: Campbell LM, Eppig J, Kelsey RT, Edmonds E, Bondi MW | Date: 02-14-2018 | 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. |
