Usability and Accessibility of the ArtontheBrain TM Virtual Recreation Activity for Older Adults With Low Vision Due to Age-Related Macular Degeneration
Experiencing visual art can inspire, be an overall positive leisure activity, and has been linked to improved cognition, especially in older adults. Access to artwork in a museum environment can comprise a variety of barriers, including difficulties linked to its visual experience for persons that are visually impaired. The present study explored the barriers and facilitators experienced by 15 older adults (age 65 to 93) living with age-related m…
Leviathan to Lucifer
Monsters and the monstrous show up in Scripture and outside the pages of Scripture. Two of the most famous biblical monsters—Leviathan and Satan—appear and reappear in different forms, and, at times, their stories are merged into one. A focus on Leviathan and Satan in Scripture helps readers to see the different ways the biblical texts depict monsters and, especially, the relationship between humans, monsters, and the divine. As these creatures (…
The Violence of Scripture
Eric Seibert's The Violence of Scripture: Overcoming the Old Testament's Troubling Legacy is a perceptive volume that asks readers to wrestle with the violence found in some of the texts of the Hebrew Bible (for Seibert, the Old Testament). Seibert is especially interested in the moral/theological challenges presented by these biblical texts and how various communities have used such passages to sanction their own violent acts throughout time. Hi…
The Effect of Bilingualism on Amnestic Mild Cognitive Impairment
Previous reports have found that lifelong bilingualism is associated with a delay in the onset of dementia, including Dementia of the Alzheimer’s Type (DAT). Because amnestic mild cognitive impairment (aMCI) is often a transition stage between normal aging and DAT, our aim in this paper was to establish whether this delay in symptom onset for bilinguals would also be seen in the onset of symptoms of aMCI and whether this delay would be consistent…

Effects of Time of Day on Age Differences in Working Memory
This study investigated the hypothesis that the influence of time of day on the efficiency of working memory is greater for older than younger adults. Groups of younger and older adults performed a working memory task on 4 consecutive days, twice in the morning and twice in the evening. Objective (body temperature) and subjective (alertness ratings) measures of arousal were taken during each session. Temperature increased across the day equally f…
