Recent years have seen the rise in popularity of the resting-state approach to neurocognitive
ageing, with many studies examining age differences in functional connectivity at rest and …

Age-related changes in cognitive and language functions have been extensively researched
over the past half-century. The study of age-related changes has spanned numerous …

Although healthy aging is generally characterized by declines in both brain structure and
function, there is variability in the extent to which these changes result in observable …

What effects will aging have on the performance of analytic versus holistic tasks? Will these
effects differ across cultures? Given that many of the basic cognitive processes implicated in …

Healthy ageing is associated with decline in cognitive abilities such as language. Aerobic
fitness has been shown to ameliorate decline in some cognitive domains, but the potential …

We were pleased to see that our opinion paper generated so many thoughtful comments,
and while there was some disagreement as to the role resting state data should play going …

Background: Among the factors that influence word retrieval are characteristics of the
stimulus (eg, length, frequency), characteristics of the individual (eg, age, education), and …

Introduction Older adults often show declines in phonological aspects of language
production, particularly for low‐frequency words, but maintain strong semantic systems …

This experiment examined the age-related slowing of visual word identification. Each of 108
subjects between 20 and 78 years of age performed a word/nonword discrimination (lexical …

As we age we have increasing difficulty with phonological aspects of language production.
Yet semantic processes are largely stable across the life span. This suggests a fundamental …
