AbstractDespite consistent evidence on the efficacy of CST in enhancing cognition in people with mild-to-moderate dementia, little is known about its mechanisms of action. Theoretically, CST may interact with and/or enhance brain and cognitive reserve (e.g. grey matter volume, white matter integrity, education level, work attainment) to produce the generalised cognitive benefits. In this chapter, we explored the concepts of cognitive reserve, brain reserve, neuroplasticity, and their relevance as putative mechanisms in conveying the cognitive benefits of CST. We report here preliminary findings from a pilot MRI study. Results are discussed in the context of a passive/active model of reserve.
