Predictors of Changes in Cognitive Function in Older Korean Adults: The 2006–2018 Korean Longitudinal Study of Aging

Abstract: Cognitive decline with normal aging varies widely among individuals. This study aimed to investigate predictors of longitudinal changes in cognitive function in community-dwelling Korean adults aged 65 years and older. Data from 727 older adults who participated in the Korean Longitudinal Study of Aging (KLoSA) survey from 2006 (baseline) until 2018 (seventh wave) were used. Cognitive performance was assessed with the Korean Mini-Mental State Examination. The participants were retrospectively classified into n… Show more

“…Education can also improve their cognitive abilities ( Inouye et al, 1993 ; Lee et al, 2003 ). Furthermore, a good lifestyle can slow cognitive decline ( Kang et al, 2021 ), such as physical activity ( Lü et al, 2016 ) and fitness ( Daimiel et al, 2020 ) as well as good nutrition ( Smith and Blumenthal, 2016 ). On the contrary, smoking increases the risk of cognitive impairment in the elderly ( Souza-Talarico et al, 2021 ).…”

“…It is usually considered that above all, cognitive performance is mainly related to age (i.e., the older the patient is, the worse cognition scores) because of the associated physiological neuropathological alterations. The effect of age on cognition has been widely described ( Völter et al, 2020 ; Kang et al, 2021 ). Here, it comes into play the “common cause hypothesis,” advocating a common factor as the responsible for the continuous decline in physiological structures with aging.…”

“…Some authors have advised that prevention of cognitive impairment could reduce cognitive decline in individuals with normal aging ( Kang et al, 2021 ). However, there is a great variance among individuals.…”
