  1. Positive age beliefs increase cognitive recovery in humans (HR 1.26, 95% CI 1.08-1.46, +30.2% likelihood).

    “participants with positive age beliefs had a 30.2% higher likelihood of cognitive recovery and transitioned from MCI to normal cognition more rapidly (hazard ratio, 1.26; 95% CI, 1.08-1.46; p = .003).”
