DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): This proposal is in response to PA-10-139 Secondary Analyses of Social and Behavioral Datasets in Aging (R03) and seeks support to analyze publicly available data collected as part of the Advanced Cognitive Training for Independent and Vital Elderly (ACTIVE) study. The proposed research intends to examine the relationship between two facets of control beliefs-Intellectual Self-efficacy and Concern about Intellectual Aging (as measured by the Personality in Intellectual Aging Contexts Inventory)-and cognition over a 10- year period within the context of the ACTIVE study. For Aim 1, we will examine the developmental trajectories of Intellectual Self-efficacy and Concern about Intellectual Aging. To date, few studies have examined age-related changes in control beliefs over an extended time frame; such studies have been further limited by small sample sizes or few follow-up assessments. In Aim 1, we also will examine whether these trajectories are influenced by individual difference characteristics (e.g., age, sex, ethnicity/race, education). Assuming that a stronger sense of control is beneficial for cognitive functioning, understanding how beliefs vary with demographic factors can help target interventions to specific populations. Although beliefs can influence cognitive performance, it is equally plausible that cognitive performance influences beliefs. For Aim 2, we will examine the reciprocal associations between trajectories of Intellectual Self- efficacy and Concern about Intellectual Aging and cognitive performance over time. For Aim 3, we will examine how the relationships (established in Aims 1 and 2), differ as a function of participation in the ACTIVE cognitive training program (relative to no-contact controls). ACTIVE presents a unique context to investigate these relationships for several reasons, including: 1) a large sample of diverse, community-dwelling older adults; 2) multiple measures of cognitive abilities; 3) randomization to one of three cognitive interventions (memory, reasoning, speed of processing) or to a no-contact control group; and 4) long duration of follow-up. We have already learned much from these longitudinal data about the plasticity of cognitive abilities in later life. The findings of the proposed study will advance our understandin of the temporal associations between personal control and cognition over a 10-year period, as well as how individual differences in control beliefs and attitudes toward intellectual aging impac immediate and long- term training gains. The findings have major implications for further development and dissemination of preventative interventions to promote cognitive health in an aging population.

描述（由申请人提供）：该提案是对衰老中社会和行为数据集的PA-10-139次要分析（R03）的二级分析，并寻求支持以分析作为对独立和重要的老年人（活跃）研究的高级认知培训收集的公开数据。拟议的研究旨在研究控制信念的两个方面 - 智能自我效能和对智力衰老的关注（按照智力衰老环境中的人格量表来衡量） - 在活跃研究的背景下在10年内的认知。对于AIM 1，我们将研究智力自我效能感和对智力衰老的关注的发展轨迹。迄今为止，很少有研究检查了延长的时间范围内与年龄相关的控制信念的变化。这些研究受到小样本量或很少的随访评估的进一步限制。在AIM 1中，我们还将检查这些轨迹是否受个人差异特征（例如年龄，性别，种族/种族，教育）的影响。假设更强的控制感有利于认知功能，那么了解信念与人口统计学因素的变化如何有助于针对特定人群的干预措施。尽管信念可以影响认知表现，但认知绩效会影响信念是同样的合理。对于AIM 2，我们将研究智力自我功效的轨迹与智力衰老和随着时间的认知表现的关注之间的相互关联。对于AIM 3，我们将研究与参与主动认知训练计划（相对于无接触控制）的参与的关系（在AIM 1和2中建立）的关系。 Active提出了一个独特的背景来调查这些关系，原因有几个原因，包括：1）大量不同的社区居住的老年人； 2）多种认知能力衡量； 3）与三种认知干预措施（记忆，推理，处理速度）或无接触对照组的随机分组； 4）随访时间长。我们已经从这些纵向数据中学到了有关后来认知能力可塑性的这些纵向数据。拟议研究的发现将使我们对个人控制与认知之间的时间关联的理解，以及在10年内的个人控制和认知之间的关系，以及如何在控制信念和对知识衰老的智力老化立即和长期培训收益中的个体差异。这些发现对进一步发展和预防干预措施的传播具有重大影响，以促进老龄化人群的认知健康。
