Findings from a 20-year study show that five to six weeks of adaptive “speed of processing” training, with booster sessions, are linked to a durable reduction in dementia risk—about 25% lower over two decades, including Alzheimer's disease. Notable relevance for therapists, psychotherapists, social workers, and other mental health professionals is seen in illustrating a scalable, nonpharmacologic approach to maintaining cognitive health in aging populations.
