Cover Story: Our study aimed to explore the relationships between psychological well-being (PWB), a key protective factor against chronic aging diseases, and the core executive functions (EFs), i.e., working memory, flexibility, and inhibition. EFs are specific cognitive functions that might play a key role in healthy aging and psychological well-being. Results have shown that age and inhibitory skills are negatively correlated to the personal growth subscale of the PWB scale. Moreover, inhibition, but not working memory and flexibility, predicted the sense of continued growth and development of older adults, even after controlling for age and educational levels. These results highlight how inhibitory abilities might foster adaptative behavior and then influence older adults’ perceived PWB; significant clinical implications in terms of preventive interventions for mental health are discussed.
