Health and minority stress in explaining change in executive function: Results from the Canadian Longitudinal Study on Aging (CLSA)

Alzheimer’s disease is characterized by deficits in multiple cognitive domains, one being executive function (e.g., planning, inhibition, decision making). Maintaining executive functions is important for autonomy and independence in daily living. Minority stress is linked to cross‐sectional differences in executive function, but less is known about the potential role of minority stress in changes in executive functioning over time.
