• Findings indicate that individuals with higher cognitive reserve demonstrate better cognitive function despite bipolar disorder.
• Assessment of cognitive reserve involved various neuropsychological tests across diverse patient groups.
• These insights may lead to targeted interventions that enhance cognitive resilience in bipolar individuals.
