Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Practical problem solving. Studies have shown that middle-aged adults demonstrate improvements in their ability to solve practical problems arising from everyday life experiences. This may be due to their accumulated knowledge and experience, as well as better use of strategies and heuristics. While cognitive inhibition, flexible shifting, and continuous performance tasks are all important aspects of cognitive functioning, they may not necessarily show growth in middle-aged adults.
