Study Notes

Cognitive Reserve (CR) refers to the mind’s resistance to damage to the brain.
Some individuals are better able to compensate for brain damage and establish alternative and efficient ways to function.
Those with higher CR can endure more advanced stages of dementia before their lives are impacted by the disease progression.
More research is needed to determine the factors that contribute to higher CR.
Genetics may influence overall cognitive function, but not memory.
Brain size may be associated with cognitive function, but not all studies support this theory.
Education and cognitively stimulating occupations may stall the expression of cognitive decline, but not eliminate the risk.
Building CR is a lifetime endeavor and requires introducing healthy and enriching environments from childhood.
Mind energy-intensive activities, repetition, and physical health can help build new neural pathways in the brain.
Lifelong learning and passion for learning can contribute to cognitive health.
