If 50 is the new 40 and 60 is the new 50, what’s the new 70? Well, it seems safe to at least say that 70 isn’t what it used to be. And that’s good. Because a new study finds that 70-year-olds did better on intelligence tests than 70 year olds used to do. In Sweden, anyway. The research was published in the journal Neurology.
The study compared a group of people born in 1901 and 1902 and tested in 1971 with another group born in 1930 and tested in 2000. And the [--1--] of 70 years old performed far better than the previous generation did.
The researchers say the newer seniors had [--2--]. They had better pre and [--3--] than their predecessors. They also had [--4--], a higher quality education, and better treatment of high blood pressure and cholesterol. And, the researchers say, today’s high-tech life also helps keep you sharp. Because all of those factors come into play in many other parts of the world, there’s reason to be [--5--] that it’s not just old Swedes who are smarter.

如果說(shuō)以前50歲只相當(dāng)于現(xiàn)在40歲,60歲是現(xiàn)在50歲，那現(xiàn)在的70歲呢？我們似乎可以至少這么說(shuō)，以前的70歲與現(xiàn)在的無(wú)法相比。沒(méi)錯(cuò)，因?yàn)橐豁?xiàng)新的研究發(fā)現(xiàn)如今70歲的人在智力測(cè)驗(yàn)上比過(guò)去70歲的人強(qiáng)，至少瑞士的結(jié)果是這樣。此項(xiàng)研究發(fā)表在《神經(jīng)學(xué)》期刊上。 該研究在1971年對(duì)出生于1901年和1902年的人群進(jìn)行測(cè)試,在2000年對(duì)另一組出生于1930年的人測(cè)試并比較這兩組. 新一代的70歲的人表現(xiàn)遠(yuǎn)遠(yuǎn)優(yōu)于更早的那一代。 研究人員表示小一輩的老年人有很多的優(yōu)勢(shì). 他們比老一輩得到更多的產(chǎn)前和產(chǎn)后照顧. 他們擁有更好的營(yíng)養(yǎng),更高質(zhì)量的教育,針對(duì)高血壓和膽固醇更完善的治療.同時(shí),研究人員表示,現(xiàn)今的高科技生活也使我們更睿智.所有的因素加起來(lái),我們有理由相信并不是只有瑞士的老人更聰明,而是全球通用。
