A new study by neuropsychologists finds no supporting evidence technology causes 'digital dementia' in older people.
The research found the use of digital technology, such as the internet, may have beneficial effects for people over 50.
To find out more, 4ZZZ's Toni Pankaluic spoke to Nikki-Anne Wilson, a Postdoctoral Research Associate at the University of New South Wales (Sydney) and Neuroscience Research Australia. Nikki was not involved in the study, but the new findings provided an interesting discourse on the impact technology may have on the aging brain.
