Ultra-processed food intake and impairment across multiple cognitive domains in nationally representative older U.S. adults
Introduction: Ultra-processed food (UPF) consumption, which accounts for more than 50% of energy intake in the U.S., has steadily increased among older adults over the past decade. UPF consumption is associated with overall cognitive decline, but few studies have examined the associations between UPF consumption and individual cognitive domains. In this study, we examined associations between UPF consumption and impairment in executive function, …
Assessing Cognitive Impairment in the Health and Retirement Study Harmonized Cognitive Assessment Protocol Project
BackgroundAccurate classification of cognitive impairment in population studies is challenging.ObjectiveTo compare the performance of a diagnostic algorithm with a clinical consensus panel.SampleIn 2016, the Health and Retirement Study (HRS) implemented the Harmonized Cognitive Assessment Protocol Project (HRS-HCAP) to streamline cognitive assessments for select HRS participants.MethodsThe Manly-Jones HCAP diagnostic classification was used to cl…
Food Insecurity and Dementia Risk in U.S. Older Adults
Food insecurity is a modifiable social determinant of health. Interventions and policies are needed to reduce food insecurity and promote healthy aging for older adults
The Worst of Times
Objective: To explore differences in depressive symptoms for older adults (Black, Latinx, and White) by cognitive status during the 2020 COVID-19 pandemic. Methods: Data from the Health and Retirement Study identified older adults as cognitively normal, cognitively impaired without dementia (CIND), and persons living with dementia (PLWD). Multiple linear regression analyses examined associations between cognitive status and depressive symptoms am…
Multigenerational Households During Childhood and Trajectories of Cognitive Functioning Among U.S. Older Adults
Objectives Family structure in childhood influences early brain development and cognitive performance in adulthood. Much less is known about its long-term impact on later-life cognitive functioning. We extend the two-generation family structure approach to investigate the potential contribution of living with grandparents in multigenerational households to differences in cognitive functioning at older ages. Methods Data were drawn from 9 waves of…
The Impact of Changes in Episodic Memory Surrounding Retirement on Subsequent Risk of Disability, Cardiovascular Disease, and Mortality
Retirement is a key hallmark of life for many in modern society. The Baby Boom generation has resulted in increasing numbers of retirees. Given this trend, it is important to identify key factors that promote better health and longevity in the years following retirement. We used data from 4,266 participants of the Health and Retirement Study who retired over the course of the study to examine whether levels of episodic memory at retirement and ra…
Overview of the Health and Retirement Study and Introduction to the Special Issue
Twenty five years ago, the largest academic behavioral and social science project ever undertaken in the U.S. began: the Health and Retirement Study (HRS). The HRS is an invaluable publicly available dataset for investigating work, aging, and retirement and informing public policy on these issues. This biennial longitudinal study began in 1992 and has studied more than 43,000 individuals and produced almost 4000 journal articles, dissertations, b…
The Moderating Role of Employment Status and Gender on Relationships Between Psychological Age and Health
In this study we explored the direction of over-time relationships between psychological age (PA) and 4 facets of health for older adults, with social comparison theory (SCT) and stereotype embodiment theory (SET) providing the rationale for competing causal orderings of these relationships. Expanding on recent longitudinal work (Petery, 2015; Spuling, Miche, Wurm, & Wahl, 2013) we investigated whether over-time employment status (employed, trans…
Job Lock, Work, and Psychological Well-being in the United States
The purpose of the present study was to examine job lock in relation to well-being among workers in the U.S. Job lock refers to a circumstance in which a worker would like to retire or stop working altogether, but perceives that they cannot due to needing the income, and/or health insurance. Prior to examining job lock as a potential predictor of life satisfaction we first investigated the construct validity of job lock. Results from a sample of …
Successful Aging as the Intersection of Individual Resources, Age, Environment, and Experiences of Well-being in Daily Activities
A cumulative index allows for gradations in resources that can be compensated for by external factors such as person-environment congruence. This index could guide policy and interventions to enhance resources in vulnerable subgroups and diminish inequalities in successful aging outcomes
Stress and Negative Relationship Quality among Older Couples
Findings support the dyadic biopsychosocial model of marriage and health indicating: (a) stress and relationship quality directly effect the cardiovascular system, (b) relationship quality moderates the effect of stress, and (c) the dyad rather than only the individual should be considered when examining marriage and health
Snapshots of Mixtures of Affective Experiences in a Day
Cohort differences in the marriage-health relationship for midlife women
Individual Well-being in Middle and Older Adulthood
Associations between health, control beliefs, and well-being in later life are frequently conceptualized in terms of the characteristics of individuals. However, spousal interdependencies in psychosocial characteristics are also likely to be relevant for well-being. The present study investigated associations of self-rated health, control, and relationship closeness with life satisfaction and positive and negative affect in a sample of 2,235 spou…
