Aging and false memories: Comparing effects of item-relatedness and list position

This study investigates whether semantic and phonological false memories are distinct or shared mechanisms and how they change with age, finding no age-related differences in false memory patterns.

Uneven terrain versus dual-task walking: differential challenges imposed on walking behavior in older adults are predicted by cognitive and sensorimotor function

This study examines how uneven terrain and dual-task walking affect walking speed in older adults, finding that sensorimotor function better predicts changes in uneven terrain walking speed than cognitive function.

Impacts of Spaceflight Experience on Human Brain Structure

This study examines how spaceflight duration and prior experience affect brain structure in astronauts, finding greater ventricular expansion and white matter decline with longer missions and more prior flights.

The effects of long duration spaceflight on sensorimotor control and cognition

This study examines how long-duration spaceflight affects sensorimotor control and cognition, finding transient declines in mobility, balance, and bimanual coordination that recover within 30 days, while cognitive performance remains stable.

Neural Correlates of Working Memory Training: Evidence for Plasticity in Older Adults

This study shows that working memory training increases neural efficiency and shifts activation peaks towards higher loads in older adults, indicating functional plasticity.

Brain Connectivity Tracks Effects of Chemotherapy Separately from Behavioral Measures

The paper examines how chemotherapy affects brain connectivity and cognitive health, finding that functional connectivity changes are distinct from behavioral measures of cognitive performance.
