Cognitive decline and dementia represent some of the most pressing challenges to global public health, especially amid rapidly ageing populations worldwide [...]
Previous studies have yielded inconsistent conclusions regarding the relationship between challenge stress and work creativity, suggesting that the effects may depend on contextual and individual conditions. Drawing on the strategy–situation fi...
Among the main challenges in geriatric and gerontological centers, we consider, central, the individualized attention to those elderly persons with challenging behaviors, to the extent that it is possible to design preventive strategies that delay co...
This paper provides an overview of cognitive radio technology and its applications in the field of civil aviation. Cognitive radio technology is a relatively new and emerging field that allows for dynamic spectrum access and efficient use of spectrum...
Cognitive impairment associated with schizophrenia (CIAS) represents one of the core features of the disorder and has a significant impact on functional and rehabilitation outcomes of people living with schizophrenia spectrum disorders (SSD). The aim...
The aim of this study is to analyze the risk factors that lead to cognitive impairment, depression, and psychosocial problems in type 2 diabetes and discern what aspects they have in common. Type 2 diabetes is associated with a higher risk of cogniti...
