The Relationship Between 10-Year Changes in Cognitive Control Beliefs and Cognitive Performance in Middle and Later Adulthood.
Abstract
The present study used a cross-lagged panel design with longitudinal data to test if there is a reciprocal relationship between cognitive control beliefs and cognition (e.g., executive functioning and episodic memory) over 10 years, whether frequency of engaging in stimulating cognitive activities mediated this relationship, and if these relationships varied by age.

Research summary
The study examines the relationship between cognitive control beliefs and cognitive performance over a decade, which is pertinent to understanding cognitive aging. However, it primarily focuses on correlational aspects rather than addressing root causes of aging or lifespan extension. The findings may contribute to the field of cognitive aging but do not present significant advancements that could lead to transformative changes in longevity research.
