To understand the cause of the age-related decline in cognitive function and its underlying mechanism, the cognitive aging model can provide us with important insights. In this section, we will introduce behavioral and neural models about age-related cognitive changes. Among behavioral models, several aging theories were discussed from the perspectives of educational, biological, and sociological factors, which could explain parts of the aging process. With the development of imaging technology, many studies have discussed the neural mechanism of aging and successively proposed neural models to explain the aging phenomenon. Behavioral models and neural mechanism models supplement each other, gradually unveiling the mystery of cognitive aging.
为了了解认知功能随年龄衰退的原因及其潜在机制,认知老化模型可以为我们提供重要的见解。在本节中,我们将介绍与年龄相关的认知变化的行为和神经模型。在行为模型中,从教育、生物和社会学因素的角度讨论了几种衰老理论,这些理论可以解释衰老过程的一部分。随着成像技术的发展,许多研究探讨了衰老的神经机制,并相继提出了神经模型来解释衰老现象。行为模型和神经机制模型相互补充,逐渐揭开认知老化的奥秘。
