Abstract:Studies have shown that older adults with high Cognitive Reserve (HCR) exhibit better executive functioning than their low CR (LCR) counterparts. However, the neural processes linked to those differences are unclear. This study investigates (1) the neural processes underlying enhanced executive functions in older adults with HCR and (2) how executive control differences are modulated by task difficulty. We recruited 74 participants, who performed two executive control tasks with different difficulty levels whi… Show more
