Second language learning in older adults modulates stroop task performance and brain activation

HIGHLIGHTS

• What: The authors assessed both behavioral and fMRI responses during a Stroop task in older adults, preand post language-learning intervention. The authors propose that with sufficient engagement, language learning can enhance specific domains of cognition such as the executive functions. The authors used a pre-post intervention design with functional magnetic_resonance imaging (fMRI) to explore the neural effects of language learning in older adults. Altogether, in line with the previous reports (Bubbico et_al, 2019; Meltzer et_al, 2023), the authors provide evidence that even short-term language learning interventions can significantly reorganize and enhance neural_network functions in . . .
