Study Helps Explain Why Motivation to Learn Declines with Age

The older you get the less likely you are to learn new stuff. We intuitively know this stereotype to be true, especially as our own lived experience (this is now biography) accelerates into ‘past it’ phase. An interesting study as to why our motivation to learn declines over time, with implications on how we age diversify our workforce. Should we test for learning ability, if there are biological markers of it? Ethnical conundrum right here folks.
