几乎没有发现认知能力下降的可改变的危险因素。尽管外部控制点（LoC）与许多心理和身体健康结果负相关，但很少有研究探讨它是否与成年后的认知功能有关。在来自雅芳父母和儿童纵向研究的 1178 名女性中，我们检查了 LoC 以及 LoC 随着时间的推移的变化是否与中年认知功能相关。使用经过验证的 Nowicki-Strickland 量表对平均年龄 30 岁和 48 岁的 LoC 进行前瞻性测量。认知功能在平均年龄 51 岁进行了检查。在这两个时间点，较大的外部性与较低的认知功能相关。例如，平均年龄为 48 岁的外向女性群体的认知功能评分平均比内向群体低 0.18（95% CI：（0.11 至 0.25）（p<0.001）。随着时间的推移，从外向变为内向的参与者平均比保持外向或变为外向的参与者具有更好的认知功能。总而言之，外向 LoC 可能对认知功能有害。因此，干预措施增加内在性可能有助于最大限度地减少对以后生活中认知健康的不利影响。
Few modifiable risk factors for cognitive decline have been identified. Despite an external locus of control (LoC) being adversely associated with many psychological and physical health outcomes, few studies have examined whether it is related to cognitive function in adulthood. In 1178 women from the Avon Longitudinal Study of Parents and Children, we examined whether LoC, and change in LoC over time, is associated with cognitive function in midlife. LoC was prospectively measured at mean ages 30 and 48 years using the validated Nowicki-Strickland scale. Cognitive function was examined at mean age 51 years. At both time points, greater externality was associated with lower cognitive function. For example, the group of women classified as being external at mean age 48 years had, on average, a 0.18 lower cognitive function score (95% CI: (0.11 to 0.25) than the group classified as being internal (p<0.001). Participants who changed from external to internal over time, on average, had better cognitive function than those who remained external or changed to become external. In summary, an external LoC may be detrimental to cognitive function. Thus, interventions to increase internality may help to minimise the adverse consequences on cognitive health later in life.
