This study analyzes whether and how cognitive aging patterns vary across cohorts in Korea, especially with a focus on their gender differences.\u00a0<\/span>The analysis is based on a 5,270 sample from Korean Longitudinal Study of Aging data which biannually surveyed Koreans aged 45 or older from 2006 to 2016.\u00a0<\/span>The study finds that the more recent cohort one belongs to, the higher level of cognitive function and the lower rate of cognitive aging s\/he is likely to show. These cohort differences are much bigger for women, which leads to smaller gender gaps in cognitive aging among recent cohorts.\u00a0<\/span>The study suggests that recent Korean society\u2019s dramatic increases in education level and women\u2019s labor force participation could be associated with these cohort-gender variations in cognitive aging.<\/span><\/p>\n
