author keywords: engagement; activity; effort; motivation; aging
MeSH headings : Adult; Aged; Aged, 80 and over; Aging / psychology; Blood Pressure / physiology; Cognition / physiology; Female; Humans; Male; Middle Aged; Neuropsychological Tests; Stereotyping; Task Performance and Analysis; Young Adult
TL;DR: Older adults' decisions to engage in cognitively challenging activities are disproportionately affected by their subjective perceptions of demands, which indicates that overcoming faulty and discouraging task perceptions may promote older adults' engagement in demanding but potentially beneficial activities.
