Associations of childhood socioeconomic status with mid‐life and late‐life cognition in Chinese middle‐aged and older population based on a 5‐year period cohort study

Abstract

This study indicates that childhood SES is associated with mid-life and late-life baseline cognition, but it is not contributed to cognition decline. Interventions in early-life focused on improving childhood SES might have positive impacts on baseline cognition in later-life.
