Neighborhood Disadvantage, Functional Difficulty, and Cognitive Decline among Older Mexican Americans
Neighborhood disadvantage may represent a socioeconomic stressor that can negatively impact cognitive health among older Mexican Americans with functional difficulty. Culturally responsive neighborhood-level efforts may contribute to reducing the risk of cognitive decline among older Mexican Americans
Positive Childhood Experiences, Cognition, and Biomarkers of Alzheimer’s Disease
Positive childhood experiences (PCEs) have unknown effects on late life cognition and Alzheimer's Disease biomarkers. We examined 406 Asian, 1179 Black, 349 Latinx, and 498 White KHANDLE and STAR study participants with data on PCEs, longitudinal cognitive measures, MRI (n = 560), and amyloid PET (n = 281). We conducted mediation and multigroup models within the structural equation modeling framework allowing us to examine the direct association …
The Mediating Effects of Education and Occupational Complexity Between Race and Longitudinal Change in Late Life Cognition in Active
This study examined educational and occupational inequality as two aspects of social determinants of health that might mediate the longitudinal relationship between racialization and late life cognitive level and change. Participants were 2371 individuals racialized as Black and White from the ACTIVE study who provided occupational data. Data were analyzed from baseline and five assessments over 10-years using structural equation modeling. Black/…
The Effects of Occupational Complexity on Late Life Cognition in Active
Objectives: This article sought to determine (1) whether occupational complexity (OC) explains individual differences in cognition at baseline, (2) whether this relationship is differentially related to cognition by Black/White race, and (3) whether OC mediates some or all of the Black/White race-related variance in late life cognition. Methods: 2371 participants from the Advanced Cognitive Training for Independent and Vital Elderly (ACTIVE) stud…
Evaluating Social Determinants of Health Domains and Their Predictive Validity Within Black/African American and White Older Adults From the Active Trial
This investigation uses baseline data from individuals participating in the ACTIVE trial ( n = 2505) to reproduce the SDoH domains described in Healthy People 2030 (economic stability, health care, education, neighborhood and built environment, and social and community context). Results: Results support using data from the ACTIVE trial to assess all five SDoH domains, and the ability of the composites to predict baseline performance on measures o…
