Reacción a "The use of technology can reduce the risk of cognitive impairment in people over 50"

This is a meta-analysis and systematic review of studies exploring the relationship between the use of digital technology and cognitive ageing in adults over 50. These types of studies have the most scientific evidence. In addition, it is published in a journal with a very high impact index.

The findings indicate that greater use of digital technologies was linked to a lower risk of cognitive impairment and slower rates of decline, even after considering various factors. The study suggests that interaction with technology could benefit cognition as we age, although more research is needed to understand the causal mechanisms and specific types of technological exposure. It is fully in line with an article we published in 2021, which is one of the articles the meta-analysis used to conduct the study.

The implications for the real world clearly involve the use of technology as cognitive stimulation.
