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
