[Effect of various factors on the rate of mental activity during training (the problem of aging)].
The author analyzes the effect of such factors as education, age and the health status on the rate of mental processes under training. Different educational levels are reflected in young and middle-aged individuals in clear-cut differences in terms of their capacity for work which is not so for the older age group. In conditions of training the overwhelming portion of the trainees show an identical level of progress, yet the proportion of individuals with psychophysical retardation tends to increase with age. In principle, the rate of learning may be trained in all age groups, yet in older individuals, the learning processes are less expressed and consistent. Patients with cerebral atrophy exhibit little progress in learning and irregularly changing parameters of the capacity for work.
