Article Synopsis
- The study examined how the medial prefrontal cortex (MPFC) is involved in self-referencing information for both younger and older adults during an fMRI session focused solely on self-reference tasks.
- Both age groups showed strong activation of the MPFC when remembering self-referenced adjectives, suggesting that this area is crucial for encoding self-related information across ages.
- However, notable age-related differences appeared in regions tied to emotional processing and cognitive control, indicating that how individuals judge themselves can vary depending on whether they also judge others.
