Article Synopsis
- Contemporary research suggests that higher education may provide a cognitive reserve that could protect against age-related neurocognitive disorders by weakening the link between brain changes and cognitive decline.
- A study analyzing data from 708 middle-aged and older adults used local structural equation modeling and found no evidence supporting the idea that education influences the relationship between changes in hippocampus volume and episodic memory.
- Even when focusing on individuals at higher genetic risk for dementia, the findings remained the same, indicating that education does not consistently protect against cognitive decline as proposed by cognitive reserve theory.
