Scientific evidence confirms the power of higher test scores and the impact these scores can have on the trajectory of students' lives. Higher scores correlate with better physical and mental health metrics as well as better economic prospects—making these scores important for more than entrance into higher education institutions.

Evidence suggests that improved cardiorespiratory fitness may mitigate this decline. Higher-fit older adults tend to show preserved white matter microstructural integrity compared to their lower-fit counterparts. Nonetheless, it is still an open question as to what extent fitness and aging independently have on the matter of integrity across the entire adult lifespan.
