Aging, training, and the brain: A review and future directions (2009, neutral): “For example, Salthouse (2006) has offered a thorough critique of claims that cognitive engagement, training or other forms of “mental exercise” can reduce the rate of age-related cognitive decline.”
The strength model of self-control revisited: Linking acute and chronic effects of exercise on executive functions (2015, result): “Such a mechanism has already been observed in several occasions, for instance when older adults show greater extent of brain activation than younger adults for similar objective levels of difficulty.(67,68) Moreover, some studies showed that older adults had better performance than young adults in s”
Span, CRUNCH, and Beyond: Working Memory Capacity and the Aging Brain (2010, background): “The main purpose of this study was to quantitatively investigate predictions made by CRUNCH (Reuter-Lorenz & Cappell, 2008).”
Attention and Ageing (2014, background): “…utilization of neural circuits hypothesis (or CRUNCH) has attempted to account for age-related changes as a function of task diffi culty, as well as incorporate why prefrontal neural recruitment may not always be compensatory ( Reuter-Lorenz and Lustig 2005 ; Reuter-Lorenz and Cappell 2008 ).”
