Résumé
My program will examine how contextual factors (time of day, caffeination, sleep deprivation, mood) and lifelong experiential factors (exercise, bilingualism, education) collectively delay age-related cognitive decline. This research will generate new knowledge about how these factors interact to best predict older adults' cognitive wellness. Using behavioural and neuroimaging methods, I will examine older adults' cognitive control by studying the impact of contextual factors, lifestyle factors, lifestyle factors with a cardiovascular origin, and protective lifestyle factors to recommend ways of optimizing the cognitive potential of older adults across cultures and countries.
