Older workers have fewer senior
moments (August 2013)
In the
News—“Older Workers have fewer senior moments”
I must
say I found this research good news.
German researchers compared 200 young workers (age 20-31) against older
workers (65 -80 years old) for a period of 100 days. The researchers compared these two groups on
mental skills such as how much they could learn, how their thinking skills
varied from day-to-day and whether their memory functioned well.
The
older group of workers did well; they were more consistent in their work and on
a day-to-day basis they were highly motivated, and more stable in their
moods. The older group used strategies
they had learned earlier to solve new tasks.
Interesting research. http://www.foxnews.com/health/2013/08/08/older-workers-have-fewer-senior-moments/
