Lots of people seem to get better scores as they age, mostly just because of random variations and test limitations, no doubt, but it seems possible to improve on any of these factors by improving health, continuing practice and maybe some vitamins and drugs. The numbers seem almost like a different study. How can the variance of the slopes be so low when the hedgehogs look like that, with slopes all over the place? Maybe I don't get what variance is supposed to mean or be of in this case?EHnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4624586630299165335.post-51604284185519936842016-12-01T22:08:56.260+00:002016-12-01T22:08:56.260+00:00Perhaps the increase in prudence-personality trait...Perhaps the increase in prudence-personality trait caused by falling hormonal fire + the weakening of the body compensates for the drop in cognitive performance.<br /><br />Santocultonoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4624586630299165335.post-55222732716966301402016-12-01T19:03:13.247+00:002016-12-01T19:03:13.247+00:00I am only too aware of my cognitive decline.

The combination of still having quick reflexes while no longer being adroit can be peculiarly destructive. <br /><br />And there's another thing that frustrates, the decline in eyes and ears. It's a sad motto for old age: not deft but deaf. deariemenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4624586630299165335.post-25082793837205438762016-12-01T17:25:04.110+00:002016-12-01T17:25:04.110+00:00My supple, athletic young mind has spotted a broke...My supple, athletic young mind has spotted a broken link:<br />https://drive.google.com/openid=0B3c4TxciNeJZSThZdTl2UWJSeDQ<br /><br />Fx. replace with this, and then welcome to delete my comment:<br />http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0160289616302707<br /><br />In table 3, and Supplementary table 7, BMI appears to have a significant protective effect.
