One popular theory, Ghisletta explained, is that the physical body is inextricably linked to mental, emotional, and cognitive processes.

“All of these domains are just declining together, whether it’s cognition, personality, emotions, or biological, medical decline in general,” he said. 

Following that theory, verbal fluency would be a good measure of well-being, Ghisletta explained, because it’s a complex process that relies on multiple cognitive abilities. This might include long-term memory, vocabulary, efficiency, and visual memory. So, when you’re testing your verbal fluency, “you are doing something very interesting,” he said.
