As I was searching for today’s topic, I found an article I had clipped a month ago and promptly forgot about. I’m not sure if it’s an age-related thing but I think we’re all familiar with the expression “senior moment.”
Some of my friends have them (if I do, I must have forgotten) and they also seem to react a bit more slowly to questions as well. That’s why I clipped the article, which comes from Scientific American and deals with a study on older folks and reaction times. As it turns out, the fact that we take longer to make decisions as we age has nothing to do with impaired mental ability. It also raises a business point.
