| Sommario/riassunto: | This text brings together everything we know about aging and processing speed, in a vast quantitative overview. The topics include slowing in elementary mental tasks and tasks of executive control, mental slowing over the lifespan, and how age-related slowing impacts processing in more complex aspects of cognition. |
