This study aimed to determine if meditation training, by comparison to active and passive control groups, is linked to changes in the perception of cognitive functioning in older adults. One hundred thirty-four healthy older participants from the Age-Well Randomized Clinical Trial were included: 45 followed a meditation training, 45 a non-native language training and 44 had no intervention. Subjective cognition was assessed at baseline and following the 18-month intervention period. Perception of attentional efficiency was assessed using internal and external Attentional Style Questionnaire (ASQ) subscale scores. Perception of global cognitive capacities was measured via the total score of Cognitive Difficulties Scale (CDS). Deltas ([posttest minus pretest scores]/standard deviation at pretest) were calculated for the analyses. Generalized mixed effects models controlling for age, sex, education and baseline scores revealed that meditation training decreased the vulnerability score toward external distractors measured by the ASQ compared to non-native language training. However, no between-groups differences on ASQ internal or CDS total scores were observed. Results suggest a beneficial effect of meditation practice on perceived management of external distracting information in daily life. Meditation training may cultivate the ability to focus on specific information (e.g., breath) and ignore stimulation from other kinds of stimuli (e.g., noise).","PeriodicalId":7532,"journal":{"name":"Aging, Neuropsychology, and Cognition","volume":" ","pages":"252-269"},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2025-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141625712","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Navigation is guided by landmarks and self-motion cues, that we address when estimating our location. These sources of spatial information are often associated with noise and uncertainty, thus posing a challenge during navigation. To overcome this challenge, humans and other species rely on navigational cues according to their reliability: reliable cues are highly weighted and therefore strongly influence our spatial behavior, compared to less reliable ones. We hypothesize that older adults do not efficiently weigh spatial cues, and accordingly, the reliability levels of navigational cues may not modulate their spatial behavior, as with younger adults. To test this, younger and older adults performed a virtual navigational task, subject to modified reliability of landmarks and self-motion cues. The findings revealed that while increased reliability of spatial cues improved navigational performance across both age groups, older adults exhibited diminished sensitivity to changes in landmark reliability. The findings demonstrate a cognitive mechanism that could lead to impaired navigation abilities in older adults.","PeriodicalId":7532,"journal":{"name":"Aging, Neuropsychology, and Cognition","volume":" ","pages":"326-342"},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2025-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141974838","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

While CR proxies seem valuable for predicting cognitive function, their measures are often conflated with age effects. The current study aims to address this by introducing an age-invariant approach of CR. We included 380 participants (age = 18-79) from the Advanced Brain Imaging on aging and Memory (ABRIM) study who completed the Cognitive Reserve Index questionnaire (CRIq), a measure to estimate verbal IQ, and several neuropsychological tasks in the domains of memory, executive function and attention/speed. With various regression models and structural equation modeling, we assessed age effects on the CRIq subscales and their predictive value on cognitive function. Results showed a significant non-linear age effect on the Education and Occupation subscale of the CRIq and a linear age effect on the Leisure subscale. New age-corrections derived from these effects were more accurate than age-corrections from the original norm scores. Moreover, the three cognitive domains were significantly predicted in the expected direction by the new age-corrected CRIq scores, and not by the raw scores or original age-corrected scores. However, compared to verbal IQ, the predictive value of these CRIq scores was still low. Associations between the CRIq and cognitive function seemed to vary across the lifespan, but were not consistently stronger for older adults. These findings illustrate the importance of age adjustments in CR research. Most importantly, appropriate age-adjustments may be sample specific and non-linear effects to properly correct for age must be considered.","PeriodicalId":7532,"journal":{"name":"Aging, Neuropsychology, and Cognition","volume":" ","pages":"1-19"},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2025-02-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143490442","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Previous studies have examined how age-related differences in time perception affect intertemporal choices. However, the impact of time perception strategy on intertemporal decision-making among older adults remains unclear. This study was designed to examine how timing perception strategy influence decision-making among older adults while also exploring the possible mechanisms. We manipulated timing perception strategy preferences through priming in two experiments (Experiment 1, n = 160; Experiment 2, n = 129). Both intertemporal decision-making tasks and matching tasks were used to validate the findings. The results indicated that younger adults tend to prefer external strategy, which is associated with a longer subjective time perception and a stronger inclination toward immediate rewards. In contrast, older adults were more likely to prefer internal strategy, which correlates with a shorter subjective time perception and a preference for delayed gratification. Moreover, subjective time perception played a fully mediating role in the impact of timing perception strategy on intertemporal decision-making, with age moderating the influence of these strategies on subjective time perception. These findings suggest that the influence of timing perception strategy on intertemporal decision-making may be mediated by subjective time perception and that differences in strategy preferences could help explain age-related difference in decision-making preferences. This study provides a novel perspective on the mechanisms behind age-related differences in intertemporal decision-making by revealing how cognitive and time perception uniquely shape decision-making processes in older adults.","PeriodicalId":7532,"journal":{"name":"Aging, Neuropsychology, and Cognition","volume":" ","pages":"1-22"},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2025-02-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143466402","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
