Older Drivers Reduced Engagement in Distracting Behaviors Over a Six-Year Period
Drivers in our cohort reduced their engagement in distracting behaviors over the study period. This suggests that older drivers adjust their driving over time, which aligns with age-related theories and models about compensation
Cohort Profile
The Canadian Longitudinal Study on Aging (CLSA) was established to understand and address the needs of an aging population.1–3 Overall aims are to examine aging as a dynamic process; to investigate the inter-relationship among intrinsic and extrinsic factors from mid-life to older age; and to capture the transitions, trajectories and profiles of aging.4 A central objective in creating the CLSA was to provide national infrastructure and build capa…
Functional disability and social participation restriction associated with chronic conditions in middle-aged and older adults
BACKGROUND: We examine the population impact on functional disability and social participation of physical and mental chronic conditions individually and in combination. METHODS: Cross-sectional, population-based data from community-dwelling people aged 45 years and over living in the 10 Canadian provinces in 2008-2009 were used to estimate the population attributable risk (PAR) for functional disability in basic (ADL) and instrumental (IADL) act…
The Canadian Longitudinal Study on Aging (CLSA)
Les Canadiens vivent plus longtemps et les personnes plus âgées composent une part croissante de la population (14% en 2006, projeté d’atteindre 20% d’ici 2021). L’Étude longitudinale canadienne sur le vieillissement (ÉLCV) est une étude longitudinale nationale portant sur le développement adulte et le vieillissement qui recrutera 50 000 Canadien(ne)s âgé(e)s de 45 à 85 ans et qui les suivra pendant au moins 20 ans. Tous les participants fourniro…
David Snowdon. Aging with Grace
Ce livre fait le décompte du développement de l'étude des religieuses (« Nun Study »). Cette recherche a exercé une influence scientifique sur le domaine. L'étude offre le point de vue de David Snowdon qui a débuté cette recherche comme projet pilote en 1986. D'un style familier qui se lie sans difficulté, Snowdon décrit le processus du projet et reflète sur ceux qui ont exercé une influence sur son développement. Parsemé à travers ce texte attir…
Pro- and Retrospective Memory in Late Adulthood
Predicting caregiver burden and depression in Alzheimer'sdisease
Our findings add to the preexisting literature because we tested alternative models of caregiver burden using an unusually large sample size of participants and after overcoming methodological limitations of past research. Results highlight the importance of the effective management of disturbing behaviors, the provision of formal services for caregivers with highly impaired patients and no informal support, and the improvement of coping skills i…
An Examination of Driving Records in a Dementia Clinic
The driving records of 249 persons referred to an outpatient dementia clinic were examined retrospectively to assess the specificity of the association between diagnosed dementia and increased traffic accidents. The clinic patients were divided into two groups: those who met criteria for dementia and those who did not. For each group, control subjects matched on age, gender, and location of residence were randomly selected from the records of all…
