Description
Emily Ho and nine co-authors reviewed in 2025 how decision-making ability is measured in middle and later life. Weak decisions harm money, health care, and end-of-life choices, and thinking decline often undercuts them, yet routine screening rarely tests deciding itself. The team searched the literature across five life domains.
They cataloged the measures in use and graded the proof that each measures what it claims, in the groups where it was tried. The field proved scattered, with unlike constructs under one label. A shared map helps clinics pick tools and helps researchers build better ones.
