简要总结
To evaluate the effectiveness of a daily cognition training programme versus a traditional cognitive stimulation programme in cognitively unimpaired older adults on cognitive function, emotional state, frailty and functionality.
详细描述
The present study aims to demonstrate the effectiveness of programmes that use everyday cognition for the assessment and intervention of healthy elderly people with the aim of maintaining or improving autonomy, compared to other programmes based on traditional cognitive stimulation, whose benefits do not generalise to significant improvements in everyday life. In addition, the investigators seek to relate how the presence of depression in older people impacts on everyday cognition, and therefore on the functionality of IADLs.

WORKING HYPOTHESIS AND MAIN OBJECTIVES TO BE ACHIEVED
-
WORKING HYPOTHESES
- Alternative hypothesis (H1): Everyday cognition training programmes are more effective than traditional cognitive stimulation on cognitive function, emotional state, frailty and functionality in older adults without cognitive impairment.
- Null hypothesis (Ho): Everyday cognition training programmes are not more effective than traditional cognitive stimulation on cognitive function, emotional state, frailty and functionality in older adults without cognitive impairment.
In order to validate or disprove the main hypothesis, the following objectives have been developed: 2. OBJECTIVES:

结局指标
主要结局
Everyday cognition.
时间窗: 35 minutes
The Test for the Assessment of Everyday Cognition measures the ability of older people to solve everyday problems through performance tasks whose resolution depends on their cognitive capacity. The abilities tested are planning ability and cognitive flexibility, verbal working memory, reasoning, episodic memory, episodic memory and crystallised intelligence. The result is a direct estimation of the person's functional capacity by means of 12 real situations grouped into 6 areas: medication, administrative management, financial management, meal preparation, transport and shopping. The administration time is about 35 minutes.
