Article Synopsis
- - The study examines how aging affects cognition and brain structure in older adults, focusing on individual differences and the impact of sociodemographic factors on cognitive decline.
- - Researchers analyzed a group of Southeast-Asian older adults through cognitive tests, brain imaging, and interviews to identify cognitive profiles and how they relate to brain health and socioeconomic status.
- - Findings revealed that specific cognitive impairments were linked to reductions in brain regions related to cognitive control and that lower socioeconomic standing and cognitive reserve contributed to poorer cognitive performance, highlighting the complex relationship between aging, brain health, and social factors.
Belonging to multiple groups is an important feature of our social lives. However, it is largely unknown if it is related to individual differences in cognitive performance. Given that changing self-identities linked to each group requires cognitive operations on knowledge bases associated with each group, the extent to which people belong to multiple groups may be related to individual differences in cognitive performance.

Article Synopsis
- Researchers found that brain activity (ERPs) changes when people see products they like or dislike.
- They tested 40 people by showing them pictures of products and then asked their opinions on these items.
- The study showed that certain brain responses (like the LPP and PSW) could predict what products people preferred with a 71% accuracy.
Article Synopsis
- The study looked at how people's preferences for shopping items affected their brain responses when they saw pictures of those items.
- Researchers found that certain brain waves changed depending on how much someone wanted a product, especially during a virtual shopping task.
- The results suggest that early brain responses show automatic feelings about what people want, while later responses are based on more thoughtful decisions about those items.
