Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

As a pilot, Oscar is likely to have received extensive training to enhance attentional abilities, which may result in smaller age-related declines in attention compared to the average person. There is no evidence to suggest that Oscar would experience higher age-related declines in inhibition or fewer declines in processing speed than the general population. It is also unclear whether Oscar would have better selective attention at age 45 than at age 25 without additional information about his training and experience.
