Résumé

Abtract

Functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) was used to assess the effect of cognitive training on brain activation as a function of the learning phase and level of education. Forty older adults with subjective cognitive decline (SCD) received 6 1-hour memory training sessions with the method of loci. Brain imaging (N = 29) was measured during word list encoding and retrieval before training (PRE), after 3 training sessions (POST3), and after 6 training sessions (POST6). Participants showed increased activation of the left inferior pre-frontal gyrus from PRE to POST6 during encoding and reduced bilateral frontostriatal activation from PRE to POST3 during retrieval, regardless of education. Activation changes from PRE to POST3 varied as a function of education in 2 regions of the right temporal lobe: participants with lower education showed increased activation, while those with higher education showed decreased activation. These regions were initially less active in people with lower education. Results suggest a strategic shift in people with lower education and expertise building in those with higher education, along with a restoration of initial education-related differences.
