Note: Age, sex, and APOE4 carrier status were treated as covariates. B: unstandardized coefficient, β: standardized coefficient.

Key: CR, cognitive reserve; Aβ, amyloid-beta; pIQ premorbid Intelligence Quotient; OC, occupational complexity; LCA, lifetime cognitive activity; SE, standard error; APOE4, apolipoprotein E ε4.
