Resumen: We sincerely thank Dr. Sathian et al. [1] for their thoughtful and constructive comments regarding our article “Digital Competence and Cognitive Reserve in Relation to Different Domains of Cognitive Functioning in Older Adults.” We deeply appreciate their recognition of our study's contribution to understanding protective factors for cognitive health in aging populations and welcome the opportunity to clarify several methodological and interpretive aspects. However, we do not agree with the observations they have made.
