Influence of Age and Cognitive Reserve on Cognitive Function in HIV-infected South African Adults by Wagner, Marcelle

“…Bivariate correlations, independent-sample t-tests, and hierarchical regression models tested the prediction that age and cognitive reserve (as indexed by CRIq scores, fractional anisotropy, white and gray matter volume, education level, and IQ score), both independently and in interaction, will have significant effects on cognitive test performance (i.e., that increasing age and lower levels of cognitive reserve will be independently associated with poorer performance, and that older adults with lower levels of cognitive reserve will display the worst performance). …”
