Older Adults Improve on Everyday Tasks after Working Memory Training and Neurostimulation.

Brain stimulation - 1 Jan 2000

Stephens Jaclyn A, Berryhill Marian E

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Aging is associated with decline in executive function (EF), upper-level cognitive abilities such as planning, problem solving, and working memory (WM). This decline is associated with age-related volume loss and reduced functional connectivity in the frontal lobes. Cognitive training interventions aim to counter these losses, but often fail to elicit benefits beyond improvements on trained tasks....
