A corrigendum on
The Busier the Better: Greater Busyness Is Associated with Better Cognition

by Festini, S. B., McDonough, I. M., and Park, D. C. (2016). Front. Aging Neurosci. 8:98. doi: 10.3389/fnagi.2016.00098

Reason for Corrigendum:

In the originally published article, the scatterplots for Reasoning were incorrect in Figures 1, 2, although the reported statistics were accurate. The corrected Reasoning scatterplots appear in Figures 1, 2 below. This error does not change the scientific conclusions of the article in any way. The authors regret the mistake.
