Variability in prevalent and health relevant daily activities among US‐ and Foreign‐born older adults with normal and impaired cognitive function: results from the Health and Retirement Study

US- and Foreign-born older adults with healthy cognition, on average, spend time doing different daily activities. These decisions are likely influenced by sociocultural factors. Yet, their differences are reduced due to cognitive impairment providing evidence for common constraining effects of declining cognitive health across groups. Follow-up research will validate these results with additional data (to overcome the potential confounding effects of COVID-19) and focus on identifying typologies of activities that predict distal cognitive outcomes such as cognitive decline and impairment.
