Yale study finds nearly half of older adults improve physically or cognitively with age

Summary

A Yale University study challenges the myth that aging inevitably means decline. Drawing on over a decade of nationally representative data, researchers found that nearly half of adults aged 65 and older experienced measurable improvements in cognitive function, physical function, or both over time. The study highlights that people with more positive attitudes about aging were significantly more likely to show these gains, suggesting that beliefs about aging may play an important role in health outcomes.
