Rate of memory decline

upin humans1

1 study

  1. Higher-skill occupation is associated with rate of memory decline in humans.

    “Moving from a lower-skill to higher-skill occupation was associated with higher memory function, but a faster rate of decline over 2014-22.”

Memory function

upin humans1

1 study

  1. Higher-skill occupation is associated with memory function in humans (β = 0.361, 95% CI: 0.201 to 0.520 (≥3 vs 0 time points)).

    “greater time spent in a higher-skill occupation (β = 0.077, 95% CI: -0.020 to 0.175, 1 vs 0 time points; β = 0.241, 95% CI: 0.070 to 0.412, 2 vs 0 time points; β = 0.361, 95% CI: 0.201 to 0.520, ≥3 vs 0 time points) were associated with higher memory scores in 2014/15”
