(2017) showed that present biasedness was associated with earlier onset of diabetes and lower ability to manage chronic disease. This supports the development of interventions aiming to mitigate the effect of this bias (e.g. incentives or monetary-based rewards) to increase adherence to self-...
Investigators studied close to 300 clinically normal individuals between the ages of 55 and 94 years, with an average age of 74, drawn from 2 studies —the Harvard Aging Brain Study (HABS) and the Alzheimer's Disease Neuroimaging Initiative. Subjects were required to have received tau and beta...
