Abstract

Cognitive reserve is an active mechanism based on the application of resources learned thanks to a good education, profession, or premorbid intelligence. The aim of this research is to study whether the inclusion of sociodemographic variables linked to lifestyle can discriminate individuals more effectively regarding their level of cognitive reserve. Results show the importance of educational, intellectual, and professional type variables, which can contribute to a deeper knowledge of this construct. In our view, a broad number of variables should be used to assess cognitive reserve effectively.
