Regional Brain Changes in Aging Healthy Adults: General Trends, Individual Differences and Modifiers
Naftali Raz,Ulman Lindenberger,Karen M. Rodrigue,Kristen M. Kennedy,Denise Head,Adrienne Williamson,Cheryl L. Dahle,Denis Gerstorf,James D. Acker +8 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present longitudinal measures of five-year change in the regional brain volumes in healthy adults and assess the average and individual differences in volume changes and the effects of age, sex and hypertension with latent difference score modeling.
Time-Structured and Net Intraindividual Variability: Tools for Examining the Development of Dynamic Characteristics and Processes
Nilam Ram,Denis Gerstorf +1 more
TL;DR: This article provides a descriptive frame for the combined study of intraindividual variability and aging/development and points to the benefits of measurement-burst study designs, wherein data are obtained across multiple time scales, for the study of development.
Self-perceptions of aging predict mortality and change with approaching death: 16-year longitudinal results from the Berlin Aging Study.
TL;DR: It is found that it is not only higher aging satisfaction and younger subjective age but also more favorable change patterns (e.g., less decline in aging satisfaction) that are uniquely associated with lower mortality hazards.

Midlife in the 2020s: Opportunities and challenges.
TL;DR: This work considers midlife as a pivotal period that includes a focus on balancing gains and losses, linking earlier and later life periods, and bridging generations, and considers possibilities for promoting reversibility and resilience with interventions and policy changes.

TL;DR: It was found that high neuroticism and low conscientiousness, extraversion, and agreeableness were consistent predictors of mortality across studies, and smoking had a small mediating effect for neuroticism.
