    Abstract The Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE) is a widely employed screening tool for the severity of cognitive impairment. Among the MMSE items, the pentagon copying test (PCT) requires participants to accurately replicate a sample of two interlocking pentagons. While the PCT is traditionally scored on a binary scale, there have been limited developments of granular scoring scale to assess task performance. In this paper, we present a novel three-stage algorithm, called Quantification of Interlocking Pentagons (QIP) which quantifies PCT performance by computing the areas of individual pentagons and their intersection areas, and a balance ratio between the areas of the two individual pentagons. The three stages of the QIP algorithm include: (1) detection of line segments, (2) unraveling of the interlocking pentagons, and (3) quantification of areas. A set of 497 PCTs from 84 participants including their baseline and follow-up PCTs from the Rush Memory and Aging Project was selected blinded about their cognitive and clinical status. Analysis of the quantified data revealed a significant inverse relationship between age and balance ratio (beta = - 0.49, p = 0.0033), indicating that older age was associated with a smaller balance ratio. In addition, balance ratio was associated with perceptual speed (r = 0.71, p = 0.0135), vascular risk factors (beta = - 3.96, p = 0.0269), and medical conditions (beta = - 2.78, p = 0.0389). The QIP algorithm can serve as a useful tool for enhancing the scoring of performance in the PCT.

    Abstract This study examined the interactive effect of subjective age on the relationship between global cognition and susceptibility to scams. Sixty-five participants underwent an assessment of global cognition (Mini Mental State Examination; MMSE), reported their perceived age (i.e., subjective age), and responded to a self-report questionnaire assessing scam susceptibility. A main effect of global cognition on scam susceptibility was found (

    Abstract Objectives: Procrastination is an almost universal behaviour and yet little research to date has focused on procrastination among older adults. The purpose of this study was to explore the potential association between age and procrastination, and the potential mediating roles of depressive symptomatology and loneliness.
    Method: Structural equation modelling was applied to data from 1309 participants (aged 29-92) from two waves United States Health and Retirement Study (2016-2020). Within the model, sex, education, marital status, and job status were added as covariates.
    Results: There was no statistically significant direct effect between age and procrastination (β = 0.06,
    Conclusion: While age was not directly associated with procrastination, increasing age was associated with a decreased likelihood of depressive symptomatology, which was in turn associated with an increased likelihood of procrastination. Such findings indicates that age demonstrates no association with procrastination because of the suppressing effect of depressive symptomatology.

    Abstract Sleep disturbances and financial exploitation have both been linked to impaired cognitive ability, loneliness, and depressed mood in older adults, suggesting a potential role of sleep disturbances in increasing vulnerability to financial exploitation. We sought to identify evidence linking sleep disturbances to financial exploitation. We conducted a systematic search of MEDLINE, PubMed Central, and National Center for Biotechnology Information Bookshelf for relevant published articles on sleep and financial exploitation. Three studies examining both sleep and financial exploitation were identified. None of the studies explored sleep disturbances as a cause of financial exploitation. More work needs to be done to examine the role of sleep disturbances in financial exploitation. We propose a conceptual framework for identifying possible associations among sleep disturbance, biopsychosocial, and decision-related situational factors to guide further exploration of relationships between sleep and financial exploitation.

    Abstract Objective: The cortical thickness "signature" of Alzheimer's disease (AD-CT) and white matter hyperintensity (WMH) burden have each been associated with cognitive aging and incident AD and related dementias. Less is known about how these structural neuroimaging markers associate with other critical behaviors. We investigated associations of AD-CT and WMH volumes with a composite index of health and financial literacy given that the ability to access, understand, and utilize health and financial information significantly influences older adults' health outcomes.
    Design, setting, participants: Participants were 303 adults without dementia (age∼80 years; 74% women) from the Rush Memory and Aging Project.
    Measurements: Baseline 3T MRI T1-weighted structural and T2-weighted FLAIR data were used to assess AD-CT and WMH volumes, respectively. Literacy was measured using questions designed to assess comprehension of health and financial information and concepts, yielding a total literacy score. Multivariable linear mixed effects regression models determined the relationship of each neuroimaging marker, first separately and then combined, with the level of and change in literacy.
    Results: Reduced AD-CT and higher WMH at baseline were each associated with lower levels of literacy; only AD-CT was associated with the rate of decline in literacy over time. The association of AD-CT with change in literacy persisted when both neuroimaging markers were included in the same model.
    Conclusions: The cortical thickness signature of AD predicts changes in health and financial literacy in nondemented older adults suggesting that the multidimensional construct of health and financial literacy relies on specific brain networks implicated in AD.

    Abstract Objectives: This study examined the cognitive correlates of financial literacy using a comprehensive neuropsychological battery, and whether education modifies the relationship between cognition and financial literacy.
    Methods: Sixty-six participants completed sociodemographic questionnaires, an assessment of financial literacy, and a neuropsychological assessment. Multiple linear regression models that controlled for age, sex, and education examined the main effects of cognitive measures that showed a significant bivariate association with financial literacy.
    Results: After correcting for multiple comparisons, the Crystallized Composite score (
    Conclusions: Findings suggest that vocabulary knowledge and semantic memory may play an important role in financial literacy in older age.
    Clinical implications: Assessing vocabulary knowledge and semantic processes may help to identify older adults with lower financial literacy skills. Additionally, financial literacy interventions may consider targeting individuals with lower vocabulary knowledge and semantic processing skills.
