Journal of Mental Health and Aging, 7 (5): 01-02 (September 2023)
Abstract
Aging is a lifelong journey that brings with it a myriad of
experiences and transformations. Among these changes, the
shifts that occur in our cognitive abilities play a significant
role in shaping our interactions with the world. While memory
often takes center stage in discussions of cognitive aging, there
is a rich and diverse tapestry of changes that unfold beyond
memory. This article ventures beyond memory to explore
the multifaceted landscape of cognitive changes in aging,
highlighting the nuances of attention, reasoning, language,
and executive functions that paint a more complete picture of
cognitive evolution over time.
