A comprehensive study of cognitive control in healthy aging
These findings show that changes in cognitive control subcomponents follow different onsets and trajectories, highlighting the importance of including them in cognitive aging research. While some cognitive control functions decline, others seem to be preserved or even improve with age. Longitudinal follow-up studies can help uncover inter- and intra-individual changes in subcomponents with aging.
