Frontoparietal functional dedifferentiation during naturalistic movie watching among older adults at risk of emotional vulnerability

8 months 4 weeks ago
Functional dedifferentiation, a hallmark of brain aging particularly evident within the frontoparietal network (FPN), has been extensively investigated in the context of cognitive decline, yet its implications for late-life mental health remain poorly understood. Leveraging naturalistic paradigm combined with gradient mapping techniques, the present study investigated FPN functional dedifferentiation-quantified by functional dispersion of FPN in the multidimensional gradient space-during...

The relationship between category-level neural differentiation and exploratory eye movements in healthy young and older adults

8 months 4 weeks ago
Age-related neural dedifferentiation, characterized by lower selectivity of neural responses in high-level sensory cortex, is thought to be a major contributor to age-related cognitive decline. However, the mechanisms that underlie dedifferentiation are poorly understood. Building on prior evidence that exploratory eye movements differ with age, we investigated the role that eye movement might play in age-related declines in neural selectivity. Healthy young and older adults underwent fMRI with...
