“…This aging‐related deterioration of the brain has been attributed to a number of causes such as exposure to free radicals (Droge, ), the presence of apolipoprotein E genotype ε4 (Deary, Whiteman, Pattie et al ., ), dopaminergic changes (Backman, Nyberg, Lindenberger, Li & Farde, ) and physical and mental inactivity (Davenport, Hogan, Eskes, Longman & Poulin, ; Jak, ). The role of other factors associated with Alzheimer's disease in normal aging, such as cholinergic changes and the presence of senile plaques and neurofibrillary tangles (Terry & Buccafusco, ; Wilson, ), are under debate. Regarding the influence of education, it has been suggested that education is associated with greater control over processing and conceptualization ability (Le Carret, Lafont, Mayo & Fabrigoule, ).…”

“…It actually refers to a set of symptoms or syndromes, and the primary characteristic is impaired cognitive ability, especially memory and attention. Alzheimer's disease (AD) is viewed as a prevalent form of mental disorder in modern societies, but it is actually quite dif fi cult to diagnose because one must identify the presence of neuritic plaques and neuro fi brillary tangles (Wilson, 2008 ) . Many other forms of impaired cognitive functioning may be due to cerebral infarction, brain injury, or polypharmacy.…”
