Exploring the link between personality traits and cognitive change in older adults with mild and subjective cognitive impairment

To our knowledge, this is the first study to quantify the relationship between normal and pathological personality traits and cognitive change in SCI and MCI using a comprehensive neuropsychological assessment. These findings suggest that normal and pathological personality traits might influence cognitive performance over time, particularly on tasks related to memory and attention. Understanding this influence can inform clinical interventions and contribute to personalized care for these individuals.
