简要总结
This study was planned to determine the effects of vestibular-based exercises (VBE) and calisthenic-based exercises (CBE) on the cognitive functions of the older individuals. A total of 30 people (21 male, 9 female; range: 65 - 85) will participate in the study. In this randomized controlled study, 30 participants will be divided into two groups: VBE Group (n: 15) and CBE Group (n: 15). Standardized Mini Mental State Test (SMMT) and 3 dual task (motor + cognitive: Dual Task 1, 2, 3) tests will be used to evaluate the cognitive functions of the participants.
详细描述
All the evaluations will be done before and after the 8-week exercise program (three times a week). Each group participants will be divided into 3 groups (each group consists of 5 persons) and involved in an 8-week (3 days a week) exercise program (warm-up, VBE or CBE, cool-down).

Dual task 3 (Motor + Cognitive) Test
时间窗: 10 min.
Part B of the Trail Making Test will be used. The Tracking Test was first created by psychologists working in the United States Army (Reitan 1955) and is a widely used neuropsychological test. This test requires visuospatial processing and motor skills. It consists of two parts, A and B. Part A evaluates the rate of activation based on visual scanning ability, and part B evaluates the ability to change setup and follow sequencing between sets of stimuli. Part B is more complex and takes longer to complete because it requires more visual-spatial processing than part A. Also, the difficulty level of Part B is higher than Part A because it requires more motor speed, agility and attention. That's why we chose part B of the test for this research. Participants first make a short sample of the test. Then comes the actual test.
Standardized Mini Mental State Test (SMMT)
时间窗: 15 min.
It was first developed by Folstein et al. (1975) to assess mental status. Then a standardized version was produced by Molloy and Standish (1997). The Turkish version was prepared by 3 psychiatrists (CG, TE, EE). This test, which is applied to evaluate the mental state, examines cognitive functions in five parts. These sections are; orientation, recording, attention and calculation, recall and language. The highest score is 30. Those who score 24 and below are evaluated within the framework of dementia.
Dual task 1 (Motor + Cognitive) Test
时间窗: 10 min.
Dual task 1 (Motor + Cognitive) Test This test will be used to perform a cognitive task while walking a distance of 10 meters in the person. In an area of 10 meters, the walking speed of the person is examined with the help of a stopwatch. The participant is asked to walk within a 10 meter area. Time starts when the person's foot is on the starting line and ends when he crosses the finish line. The measurement is made and the result is recorded in meters/second (m/s). In order to evaluate their cognitive functions, the participant is asked to count from 1 to 20 during walking.
Dual task 2 (Motor + Cognitive) Test
时间窗: 5 min.
The person sits down and numbers from 1 to 10 of different colors are placed on the floor. Before the test starts, 10 different commands are determined for the participant and when the test starts, these commands are said in order. The test score is determined according to the ability to execute the given commands.
