简要总结
This project aims to enhance the intrinsic capacities of elderly individuals with mild cognitive impairment by promoting innovative activities based on the Montessori approach within the context of agricultural multifunctionality.
By selecting a rural environment with educational characteristics, we aim to involve individuals with mild cognitive deficits and their families in a personalized therapeutic journey. Through various activities, including horticulture, pet therapy, occupational therapies, sensory and food laboratories, we stimulate cognitive and motor skills, promoting a healthy and balanced lifestyle

结局指标
主要结局
Changes in the positive and negative affects
时间窗: At baseline and after 9 months
The PANAS (Positive and Negative Affect Schedule) produces two distinct dimensions of affect: Positive Affect (PA): Measures emotions like joy, interest, excitement, and enthusiasm and Negative Affect (NA): Measures emotions like fear, anger, sadness, and guilt. Participants rate each of the 20 items (10 for PA, 10 for NA) on a 5-point scale (from 1 = "Very slightly or not at all" to 5 = "Extremely"). The possible score range for both PA and NA is 10 to 50. Higher scores indicate higher levels of that particular affect Scores for each subscale are calculated by summing the ratings for the corresponding items.
