Gender Differences in the Effect of Grit and Resilience on Subjective Cognitive Decline Amongst Black Americans

Our findings suggest that grit may have a worse impact on SCD in men as a coping mechanism, while resilience appears protective against SCD in Black women. These results highlight potential gender differences in how psychological traits influence the experience of cognitive health among Black Americans. Also, our study emphasizes the need to consider and further explore gender-specific factors when addressing cognitive health in diverse populations.
