[Genetic aspects of cognitive abilities across the life span].

Der Nervenarzt - 1 Nov 2009

Poustka F, Maier W

Abstract excerpt

Cognitive abilities develop during the first 2 decades and start to decrease in the 6th decade of life. There is strong heritability of general cognitive ability as well as of specific cognitive functions which might increase with age till about age 80. Cognitive disorders derive from this physiological cognitive development; they are also under genetic control. This paper discusses age-specific genetic...
