UCR CALLA Lab

Our lab has a new paper accepted for publication! This paper introduces a novel theory suggesting that if older adults learn as babies and children do (in terms of increased quantity and quality of new experiences, among other factors), older adults may also experience cognitive development. We hope you enjoy the paper, and we will continue to post updates as we empirically test this theory. Please leave any comments you have on this theory below (or you can email us at [email protected]).
