Childhood socioeconomic status and genetic risk for poorer cognition in later life.

Social science & medicine (1982) - 1 Sept 2018

Moorman Sara M, Carr Kyle, Greenfield Emily A

Abstract excerpt

The ε4 allele of the APOE gene is associated with poorer cognition in later life. This study aimed to advance understanding of how environments potentially moderate this genetic risk by focusing on childhood socioeconomic status (SES). Previous research across diverse national contexts has found that older adults from higher-SES families in childhood demonstrate better cognitive functioning than their lower-SES...
