Abstract

Later-Life Cognitive Impact of Early Technology Exposure 

Rachel Mis, PhD, Assistant Professor, Clinical Neuropsychology, Dell Medical School, The University of Texas

This project leverages two nationally representative longitudinal datasets, EdSHARe and the Health and Retirement Study, to examine how digital technology use across the lifespan influences cognitive aging. The project will explore the impact of digital technology exposure in adolescence on later life cognitive and dementia biomarker outcomes and investigate the influence of late-life compensatory technology use on cognitive trajectories.
