Tend to habits and routines even though they are no longer working
Difficulty concentrating and staying focused on complex issues
Tendency to become discouraged and hopeless about lack of progress

The video lesson includes the following topics and lesson objectives:
Cognitive Domain (Knowledge, Understanding, and Application)
1.1 Identify the role of the Prefrontal Cortex (PFC) in the Deliberate Decision-Making System and describe its key functions, including working memory, cognitive control, and managing complex tasks, while acknowledging how age-related changes in the PFC reduce efficiency in these functions.1.2 Recognize the conditions under which the Anterior Cingulate Cortex (ACC) up-regulates decision-making from the Automatic to the Deliberate System, particularly focusing on how difficulties with progress assessment and novelty in seniors can create barriers to this transition.
Affective Domain (Receiving, Responding, and Valuing)
2.1 Acknowledge the importance of cognitive control and deliberate decision-making in managing complex, unfamiliar, or difficult decisions, emphasizing the need for support systems and tools to overcome age-related challenges.2.2 Express an appreciation for how the PFC integrates information and resources to enable thoughtful and goal-directed actions, while recognizing the increased effort required due to age-related changes in neuroanatomy.
Psychomotor Domain (Perception, Set, and Guided Response)
3.1 Observe a decision-making scenario and identify when a shift from the Automatic System to the Deliberate System is necessary due to the task’s complexity or novelty, noting potential signs of struggle caused by diminished frontal lobe efficiency.
