Cover Story: Cognitive reserve refers to the adaptability of cognitive processes that help explain the differential susceptibility of cognitive abilities or day-to-day function to brain aging, pathology, or insult. This construct can be relevant to research and clinical practice in neuropsychology or related fields.

The tool was used with a healthy sample in Lebanon, and the results supported its initial validation. View this paper
