170 pages: hbk. 25 cm. Learning ability and intelligence show complex relationships with age. While some cognitive abilities, like processing speed and fluid intelligence, tend to peak in early adulthood and decline later, others, such as crystallized intelligence (knowledge and experience), continue to develop throughout life. Implicit learning, the ability to learn unconsciously from patterns, shows a notable decline after adolescence. However, cognitive training, deliberate practice, and maintenance of an active lifestyle can help mitigate age-related cognitive decline. Richard L. Sprott Includes Index.
