A new study published in JAMA Network Open suggests that parental education may play a significant role in protecting cognitive health in middle-aged and older adults. The study, conducted by Shengyu Luo and colleagues from Sun Yat-Sen University in Guangzhou, China, examined the association between maternal and paternal education levels and cognitive decline in individuals from four different countries.

The analysis included nearly 36,000 participants from China, the United States, England, and Mexico. The researchers found that higher levels of maternal and paternal education were associated with slower rates of cognitive decline over time in most cohorts. In China, the United States, and England, maternal education at the upper secondary level or higher was linked to slower rates of cognitive decline, while in Mexico, only primary maternal education showed a similar association.

Similarly, paternal education at the upper secondary level or higher was associated with slower cognitive decline in the Chinese, U.S., and English cohorts, with primary paternal education showing a significant association in the Mexican cohort. The study also found that the participants’ own education level played a mediating role in the association between parental education and cognitive decline, except in the Mexican cohort.

The authors of the study emphasize the long-term implications of parental education on offspring’s cognitive health across different cultural and socioeconomic contexts. They suggest that improving educational attainment could help reduce intergenerational disparities in late-life cognitive health.

Overall, the findings highlight the importance of parental education in shaping cognitive function in middle-aged and older adults and underscore the potential benefits of investing in education to promote cognitive health in future generations.
