Building on this insight, the mini-EDUball method was developed to integrate cognitive and motor activities directly at the classroom desk. While this approach has been applied successfully with children, its potential for older adults remains underexplored.Methods: This preregistered study addresses this gap by examining the impact of mini-EDUballs on English vocabulary acquisition and fine psychomotor skills in seniors. Seventy-three participants aged 60+ were assigned to four groups with varying uses of mini-EDUballs and motor exercises during a 12-week English course. Vocabulary and fine motor skills were assessed before and after the intervention.Results: All groups improved in vocabulary; however, gains under mini-EDUball - based instruction were not larger than those observed in the comparison groups. The findings further suggest that, when mini-EDUball is used with older adults, it may be preferable to implement simple games that engage fine motor skills alongside mental activity unrelated to the target material, rather than activities tightly coupled to the learning content. Notably, many participants reported skepticism about the ball-based methods. Additionally, fine psychomotor performance did not change significantly over time, and this lack of change was consistent across all groups.Conclusions: Overall, the study indicates that embodied, motor-enriched language instruction is feasible in older adults and may support vocabulary learning, although learner perceptions warrant careful consideration, and benefits for hand dexterity should not be inferred.","PeriodicalId":12240,"journal":{"name":"Experimental Aging Research","volume":" ","pages":"585-605"},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2026-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147270180","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Existing designs often fail to adequately address the psychological and emotional needs of elderly users. This study, grounded in the theory of positive user experience, employs both quantitative and qualitative methods to assess the needs and experiences of older adults with smart home systems. An innovative optimization framework is proposed to enhance the quality of life, social participation, and mental well-being of elderly users. The study consists of four stages: pre-experiment preparation, a smart home simulation experience, interviews, and data analysis. Participants completed nine tasks in a simulated environment, while the system recorded data on task completion time, success rates, and emotional responses. Post-simulation interviews provided additional insights. Results reveal that value recognition, emotional feedback, and community integration significantly influence elderly users' acceptance and long-term use intention. This study is the first to apply positive user experience theory in smart home design, offering valuable theoretical guidance for future product development and fostering the integration of technology with emotional care.","PeriodicalId":12240,"journal":{"name":"Experimental Aging Research","volume":" ","pages":"541-566"},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2026-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"146141388","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Multiple regression analysis showed that pain (β = 0.47, p < .001), reduced ADL independence (β = -0.38, p < .001), and lower life satisfaction (β = -0.19, p = .010) significantly predicted kinesiophobia, explaining 70% of the variance (R2 = 0.700). Among pain subdimensions, pain-induced withdrawal was the strongest predictor. Mediation analysis demonstrated that kinesiophobia partially mediated the relationship between pain and life satisfaction (indirect effect B = -0.158, 95% CI: -0.307 to -0.042). These findings indicate that pain, loss of independence, and reduced psychosocial well-being jointly contribute to fear of movement in institutionalized older adults.

Updating and shifting predicted ToM performance, accounting for group differences in cognitive ToM and partially in affective ToM. CR, particularly occupational activity, moderated the association between age group and cognitive ToM: differences emerged at low CR but not at high CR levels.Conclusions: Findings suggest that age-related differences in ToM are associated with executive functioning and that higher CR may mitigate these differences, supporting the role of cognitive engagement in social-cognitive maintenance.","PeriodicalId":12240,"journal":{"name":"Experimental Aging Research","volume":" ","pages":"377-405"},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2026-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145660741","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

While some language functions, like semantic knowledge, remain stable or improve, lexical retrieval declines, due to reduced processing speed, weaker inhibition, and increased lexical competition. The Picture-Word Interference (PWI) paradigm is commonly used to study these effects. Taxonomic relations (e.g. cow - horse) tend to increase interference, whereas thematic relations (e.g. cow - milk) may facilitate retrieval. This study investigates how semantic links influence lexical retrieval and whether these effects vary with age.Methods: Fifty-five French-speaking adults (30 young, 25 elderly) performed a PWI task (i.e. a picture is shown with a written distractor word) with four conditions: taxonomic, thematic, unrelated, and neutral.Results: Elderly adults responded more slowly and less accurately overall. However, taxonomic distractors consistently caused the greatest interference eliciting the longest reaction times and lowest accuracy - in both age groups. Thematic and unrelated distractors produced moderate interference compared to the neutral condition.Conclusion: Semantic relationships distinctly influence lexical retrieval, regardless of age. Age-related differences mainly manifested in speed and accuracy while the structure of semantic interference is overall consistent across ages, underscoring, respectively, cognitive slowing and reduced inhibitory control in aging. Preserved semantic knowledge in elderly adults appears to mitigate some of these difficulties, highlighting its compensatory role in language production. The findings highlight the specific role of semantic relations in lexical access and confirm that aging affects processing speed more than semantic network structure.","PeriodicalId":12240,"journal":{"name":"Experimental Aging Research","volume":" ","pages":"331-351"},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2026-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145471040","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We modeled participants' utilization of both use-it-or-lose-it strategies (commonly used by older adults) and task-focused strategies (commonly used by young adults). Older adults endorsed stronger prevention-based and promotion-based self-regulatory focus than young adults did. We also found strong evidence that, for older adults, the significant relationship between self-regulatory focus and memory strategy use for both use-it-or-lose-it and task-focused strategies was frequently mediated by memory beliefs and less frequently mediated by the perceived focus of the strategies. In contrast, self-regulatory focus did not predict memory strategy use for young adults.

We examined associations of job - education adaptation with global cognitive function (MMSE) in middle-aged and older Korean workers.Methods: Using KLoSA (2008-2020), we analyzed 3,322 participants aged ≥45 years employed. Repeated MMSE scores were modeled with generalized estimating equations adjusted for sociodemographic, health, and covariates. Job adaptation was cross-classified with education (≤middle school/high school/≥college). Sensitivity and subgroup analyses by sex and age ( < 65 vs ≥ 65) were performed.Results: Job - education mismatch predicted lower MMSE scores.
