Description
Peipei Fu and Yi Wang trace how work paths across a life span link to thinking loss in later life. Their paper from 2025 uses a China aging study with four waves plus a life history survey. It held 5,511 people aged sixty or over, near half of them women.
Each person work path from age twenty to sixty was built as a sequence, and the paths fell into seven groups. People with a stable farming path scored much lower on thinking tests on average. A path from farming to late non farm work also scored lower. Paths that left farm work for late retirement, or had long inactive spans, started higher and fell more slowly. Growth curve models frame the gaps.
