The cognitive approach to studying aging emphasizes which of the following?

Memory
Social attitudes
Physical abilities
Biological changes

The correct answer is: Memory

The cognitive approach to studying aging focuses on the study of memory, intelligence, perception, problem-solving, and decision making. This approach emphasizes the role of mental processes in understanding aging, rather than focusing on social attitudes, physical abilities, or biological changes. While these factors may also play a role in aging, the cognitive approach specifically hones in on the cognitive processes involved.
