Although some adverse effects on neurocognitive function have been reported in children and adolescents irradiated prenatally during the atomic bombings and the Chernobyl nuclear accident, little information is available for effects on the elderly. Here we evaluate the effects of prenatal exposure to atomic bomb radiation on subjective neurocognitive function in aged survivors. To evaluate neurocognitive impairment, we mailed the Neurocognitive Questionnaire (NCQ), a self-administered scale, to prenatally exposed survivors, including clinic visitors and non-visitors at the time of the 2011 and 2013 Adult Health Study (AHS) examinations.

High-dose radiation in childhood such as is used in radiation therapy causes cognitive decline, but there is insufficient research on the cognitive effects of low- to medium-dose radiation. We aimed to reveal the association between atomic bomb radiation exposure in childhood and late-life neurocognitive function. In 2011 and 2013, we mailed the Neurocognitive Questionnaire (NCQ) to subjects who were 12 years old or younger at the time of the atomic bombing.

In their paper Doerig et al. argue that we should put the hard problem aside and focus on empirical data to solve the 'easy' problems of consciousness - finding the neural and functional correlates of consciousness. In other words 'shut up and measure'.
