A comprehensive study of cognitive control in healthy aging - Communications Medicine
De Pue et al. administer a cognitive control test battery measuring inhibition, updating, shifting, and proactive and reactive control in young and older adults. While some cognitive control functions decline with age, others are spared or even improve, highlighting the importance of distinguishing multiple cognitive control functions.

New open access paper in @jcgntn.bsky.social: bit.ly/4bt2D8Q! We developed and validated an open-source cognitive control test battery (bit.ly/4ql9gyP), using a transparent, open science approach. We worked on this for 6 (!!) years, with many lab members, so I'm thrilled to see this published.
