Study Arms (3)

Group cognitive intervention

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

The cognitive training will be administered twice a week for 12 weeks, located in hospital-based outpatient memory clinics. Each session will last approximately 90 minutes. The cognitive training programs will be offered in group sessions consisted of 5 participants.

Other: group cognitive intervention

Home-based cognitive intervention

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

The participants will do their homework for 30 minutes every business days for 12 weeks.

Other: Home-based cognitive intervention

Wait list Control

NO INTERVENTION

They will participate in cognitive intervention after ending this study.

Interventions

The cognitive training will be administered twice a week for 12 weeks, located in hospital-based outpatient memory clinics. Each session will last approximately 90 minutes. The cognitive training programs will be offered in group sessions consisted of 5 participants.

Group cognitive intervention

The participants will do their paper and pencil homework for 30 minutes every business days for 12 weeks.

  • any patients with clinically significant laboratory abnormalities such as an abnormal thyroid function test, abnormal low level of vitamin B12 or folate, or positive venereal disease research laboratory test
  • any patients with any primary neurodegenerative disorder or psychiatric disorder other than AD (i.e., Parkinson's disease, schizophrenia, or major depressive disorder)
  • any patients with any history of drug or alcohol addiction during the past 10 years
  • any hearing or visual impairment that can disturb the efficient evaluation of the patient
