入选标准

  • The inclusion criteria for the study were:
  • (1) Chinese people aged 60 years or above;
  • (2) the CMMSE screening score ranging from 19 to 28, which was corrected based on educational level (≥ 18 for illiterate respondents and ≥ 22 for those having received more than two years of schooling). The CMMSE score of 19 was set as the bottom limit because previous studies have found that older adults with MMSE scores of 18 can provide valid answers to inquiries and are able to follow instructions. At the upper limit, some elderly persons with MMSE scores of 28 may exhibit symptoms of memory deficit;
  • (3) ability to perform self-care functions on their own;
  • (4) no confirmed diagnosis of dementia, depression or other psychiatric illnesses which would interfere with cognitive performance; and
  • (5) no engagement in any structured physical exercise program or Tai Chi practice in the preceding year.

排除标准

  • Elderly persons were excluded from the study if they:
  • (1) had a medical history of chronic alcoholism or brain trauma occurred in previous years that could interfere with cognition;
  • (2) had been regular users of medications that could affect cognition; or
  • (3) had clinical conditions that contraindicated light to moderate physical exercise.
