Cognitive and behavioural flexibility permit the appropriate adjustment of thoughts and
behaviours in response to changing environmental demands. Brain mechanisms enabling …

We propose that older adults' ability to retrieve episodic autobiographical events, although
often viewed through a lens of decline, reveals much about what is preserved and prioritized …

Humans survive and thrive through social exchange. Yet, social dependency also comes at
a cost. Perceived social isolation, or loneliness, affects physical and mental health, cognitive …

Many but not all cognitive abilities decline during ageing. Some even improve due to lifelong
experience. The critical capacities of attention and executive functions have been widely …

The literature on large‐scale resting‐state functional brain networks across the adult
lifespan was systematically reviewed. Studies published between 1986 and July 2021 were …

In recent years, scientists have increasingly taken to investigate the predictive nature of
cognition. We argue that prediction relies on abstraction, and thus theories of predictive …

The field of cognitive aging has seen considerable advances in describing the linguistic and
semantic changes that happen during the adult life span to uncover the structure of the …

Declines in episodic memory in older adults are typically attributed to differences in
encoding strategies and/or retrieval processes. These views omit a critical factor in age …

The neural mechanisms contributing to flexible cognition and behavior and how they
change with development and aging are incompletely understood. The current study …

The intrinsic functional organization of the brain changes into older adulthood. Age
differences are observed at multiple spatial scales, from global reductions in modularity and …
