Slopes of the relationship between age and the cognitive domains as a function of CR

Cognitive domain Fluency Flexibility
Slopes
 Low CR  − 0.07 (− 0.11– − 0.02)*  − 0.07 (− 0.13–-0.02)*
 Average CR  − 0.01 (− 0.05–0.02)  − 0.03 (− 0.07–0.00)
 High CR 0.03 (− 0.01–0.07) 0.00 (− 0.05–0.05)

B values are reported, together with lower and upper borders of the 95% confidence interval. Slopes represent the relation between age and the cognitive domain score at a lower (− 1 SD), average (0 SD) and higher (+ 1 SD) level of CR
