Is going to college bad for your memory?
They need to stop doing studies on college and higher-education, because every time they do I just get more confused.
The latest research finds that people with higher educations suffer faster memory loss as they age. The study looked at people over age 70 and asked them to remember 10 words. The same people were tested up to 4 times between 1993 and 2000, and those with more schooling had a greater loss than those with less. Given, they had more "knowledge" to start with, but a lot of good that did them since they ended up at the same place as their less-educated counterparts in the end.
Okay, so college reduces your risk of stroke as you get older, but now it also increases your risk of memory problems. However will we choose?
