Acculturation, Education, and Cognition in Older Asian Americans and Canadians: results from the Asian Cohort for Alzheimer's Disease study
Higher levels of acculturation may compensate for the impact of low education on cognition in older ASACs. The findings suggest considering both education and acculturation in understanding cognitive health among aging immigrant populations. Future research incorporating socioeconomics and other contextual factors is needed to better understand the relationship among acculturation, education, and cognitive health.
