Executive functions and neurocognitive aging: dissociable patterns of brain activity
Studies of neurocognitive aging report altered patterns of brain activity in older versus
younger adults performing executive function tasks. We review the extant literature, using …

Reduced resting-state brain activity in the “default network” in normal aging
Normal aging is associated with cognitive decline. Functions such as attention, information
processing, and working memory are compromised. It has been hypothesized that not only …
