Abstract:
Individuals with a greater sense of purpose maintain better cognitive function and have lower dementia risk. We review evidence linking purpose in life to healthier cognitive aging across adulthood and diverse demographic groups. Experimental work is now needed to test causal mechanisms to evaluate the utility of purpose as an intervention target.
