Description
Siyun Peng and Brea Perry ask whether rich social ties can offset low schooling in later-life thinking, in a study from two thousand twenty-four. Schooling gaps are a known driver of gaps in memory and thinking as people age. The team used thinking tests and network data from near seven hundred adults in one state study.
Ties that bring fresh facts and new contacts linked most strongly to thinking in adults with the least schooling. At high levels of such ties, thinking gaps between schooling groups faded away. Late-life rich settings may thus help most those who missed them early. The finding fits a life-long build-up view.
