The Cambridge Handbook of Cognitive Aging: A Life Course Perspective
Book information
Description
Decades of research have demonstrated that normal aging is accompanied by cognitive change. Much of this change has been conceptualized as a decline in function. However, age-related changes are not universal, and decrements in older adult performance may be moderated by experience, genetics, and environmental factors. Cognitive aging research to date has also largely emphasized biological changes in the brain, with less evaluation of the range of external contributors to behavioral manifestations of age-related decrements in performance. This handbook provides a comprehensive overview of cutting-edge cognitive aging research through the lens of a life course perspective that takes into account both behavioral and neural changes. Focusing on the fundamental principles that characterize a life course approach - genetics, early life experiences, motivation, emotion, social contexts, and lifestyle interventions - this handbook is an essential resource for researchers in cognition, aging, and gerontology. 04_0_pp_v_viii_Contents 05_0_pp_ix_x_Figures 06_0_pp_xi_xi_Tables 07_0_pp_xii_xvi_Contributors 08_0_pp_1_2_Introduction I Models_of_Cognitive_Aging 09_1_pp_5_31_Overview_of_Models_of_Cognitive_Aging 09_2_pp_32_46_Cognitive_Reserve 09_3_pp_47_61_How_Age-Related_Changes_in_the_Brain_Affect_Cognition 09_4_pp_62_81_Neuroadaptive_Trajectories_of_Healthy_Mindspan_From_Genes_to_Neural_Networks 09_5_pp_82_100_Cognitive_Aging_The_Role_of_Neurotransmitter_Systems 09_6_pp_101_120_How_Arousal-Related_Neurotransmitter_Systems_Compensate_for_Age-Related_Decline I Summary II Mechanisms_of_Cognitive_Aging 10_1_pp_127_146_Aging_Effects_on_Brain_and_Cognition_What_Do_We_Learn_from_a_Strategy_Perspective 10_2_pp_147_160_Inhibitory_Theory_Assumptions_Findings_and_Relevance_to_Interventions 10_3_pp_161_178_From_Perception_to_Action_Bottom-Up_and_Top-Down_Influences_on_Age_Differences_in_Attention 10_4_pp_179_199_Age-Related_Sensory_Deficits_and_Their_Consequences 10_5_pp_200_217_Episodic_Memory_Decline_in_Aging 10_6_pp_218_235_Age_Differences_in_Decision_Making 10_7_pp_236_253_Emotion_and_Memory 10_8_pp_254_272_Time_Perception_from_Seconds_to_Lifetimes_How_Perceived_Time_Affects_Adult_Development II Summary III Aging_in_a_Socioemotional_Context 11_1_pp_281_298_Memory_and_Aging_in_Social_Contexts 11_2_pp_299_314_Emotion_Regulation_in_Adulthood_and_Old_Age_A_Cognitive_Aging_Perspective_on_Strategy_Use_and_Effect 11_3_pp_315_331_Changes_in_Social_and_Emotional_Well-Being_over_the_Lifespan 11_4_pp_332_349_Aging_and_Cognitive_Functioning_The_Impact_of_Goals_and_Motivation 11_5_pp_350_366_Social_Relationships_and_Cognitive_Development_in_Adulthood 11_6_pp_367_382_Emotion_Recognition_and_Aging_of_the_Social_Brain 11_7_pp_383_399_Narrative_and_Identity 11_8_pp_400_416_Stereotype_Threat_and_the_Cognitive_Performance_of_Older_Adults III Summary IV Cognitive_Social_and_Biological_Factors_across_the_Lifespan 23 Prenatal_Influences_on_Cognitive_Aging 12_2_pp_440_456_Associations_between_Activity_Participation_across_the_Life_Course_and_Cognitive_Aging 12_3_pp_457_479_Cognitive_Aging_and_Culture_Older_Brain_Predictions_about_Different_Environments 12_4_pp_480_498_Current_Perspectives_on_Aging_and_Bilingualism_across_the_Life_Span 12_5_pp_499_513_Grit_and_Successful_Aging 12_6_pp_514_531_Control_and_Cognition_Contextual_and_Individual_Differences_in_Cognitive_Aging 12_7_pp_532_551_Cognition_and_Well-Being_across_Adulthood_and_Old_Age 12_8_pp_552_567_The_Genetics_of_Cognitive_Abilities 12_9_pp_568_586_Blood_Biomarkers_of_Cognitive_Health_and_Neurodegenerative_Disease IV Summary V Later_Life_and_Interventions 13_1_pp_593_611_Cerebrovascular_Disease_Aging_and_Depression_Clinical_Features_Pathophysiology_and_Treatment 13_2_pp_612_627_The_Role_of_Nutrition_in_Cognitive_Decline 13_3_pp_628_644_The_Role_of_Sleep_in_Cognitive_Aging 13_4_pp_645_665_The_Relationship_between_Accelerometer-Derived_Metrics_of_Physical_Activity_and_Cognition_among_Olde 13_5_pp_666_684_Far_Transfer_and_Cognitive_Training_Examination_of_Two_Hypotheses_on_Mechanisms 13_6_pp_685_700_Maximizing_the_Impact_of_Cognitive_Engagement_Interventions_for_Older_Adults 13_7_pp_701_716_Mobility_and_Cognitive_Decline_in_Older_Adults_with_Cognitive_Impairment 13_8_pp_717_736_Current_and_Emerging_Technologies_for_Supporting_Successful_Aging V Summary 14_0_pp_743_764_Index 15_0_pp_765_780_Plate_Section_PDF_Only

Professional Linux kernel architecture ''Wrox programmer to programmer''--Cover. - ''What you are reading right now is the result of an evolution over more than seven years: After two years of writing, the first edition was published in German by Carl Hanser Verlag in 2003. It then described kernel 2.6.0. The test was used as a basis for the low-level design documentation for the EAL4+ security evaluation of Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5, requiring to update it to kernel 2.6.18 (if the EAL acronym does not mean anything to you, then Wikipedia is once more your friend). Hewlett-Packard sponsored the translation into English and has, thankfully, granted the rights to publish the result. Updates to kernel 2.6.24 were then performed specifically for this book''--P. ix
