Change in cognitive functioning is characteristic of normal aging and is evident in mid-life. However, changes in cognition also may be associated with medical conditions such as Alzheimer Disease. The Canadian Longitudinal Study on Aging (CLSA) is collecting detailed information about the performance of people aged 45-85 years on measures of cognitive functioning for Canadians. Our research team, funded by the Alzheimer Society of Canada and the Pacific Alzheimer Research Foundation, is seeking to understand the health and lifestyle factors that affect cognitive functions with the intention of creating standards for typical performances of English-and-French speaking Canadians that can be used to identify changes in cognition greater than expected.
