Question

You were playing a speed-based card game with your 64-year-old grandfather. The object of the game is to get rid of your cards as fast as you can. Once the first card is turned over, each player tries to play by deciding which pile to play his or her card. When you were younger, your grandfather always beat you in this game. Now, you always beat him. What is probably happening? Your grandfather is experiencing a slight decline in ____.

Cognitive skills.
