A New Measure for Neural Compensation Is Positively Correlated With Working Memory and Gait Speed

Neuroimaging studies suggest that older adults may compensate for declines in brain function and cognition through reorganization of neural resources. A limitation of prior research is reliance on between-group comparisons of neural activation (e.g., younger vs. older), which cannot be used to asses...
