Brief Summary

This project is proposed to be a three-year project. The purposes of this project are to develop and examine physical activity program, cognitive rehabilitation training, and new life-style (combination of exercise and cognitive) interventions on primary outcomes (cognitive function), and secondary outcomes (physical fitness, QOL and depression) among community-dwelling elderly adults with MCI.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (3)

  • Mini-Mental State Examination

    The participants' cognitive function was assessed by the Mini-Mental State Examination (cut point base for participants' levels of education).

    8min

  • The Alzheimer's Questionnaire

    Malek-Ahmadi et al., (2012) a 21-item, informant-based dementia assessment designed for ease of use in a primary care setting.

    2min

  • Taiwan version of Prospectiv and Retrospective Memory Questionaire (PRMQ)

    There are 11 items and include general memory and prospective memory sections for analysis the type and frequency of memory problem in elders' daily live. Items are posed in likert scale ranges from 1 (never) to 5 (always). The total score may range from 11-55. A higher score indicates a higher level of memory impaired.

Secondary Outcomes (3)

  • Mobility

    10min

  • Depressive symptoms

  • Quality of life

Study Arms (3)

comparison group

NO INTERVENTION

No procedure conducted between the pre- and the post-test evaluations, and they received an abridged version of the training after the post-test session.

exercise group

EXPERIMENTAL

The exercise program will include instructions on how to read the program, complete the activities, record their sessions, and exercise safely at first day. To promote incorporating exercising in their daily life routine during the 24-week period, we provided 2 group-based (5-8 participants with 2 instructors at community centers, 60' each) and one home-based (with the exercise program VCD and manual to bring home, 30') exercise program.

Behavioral: ExerciseBehavioral: New life-style

cognitive training group

EXPERIMENTAL

Consisted of 12 weekly sessions, lasting 60-90 minutes in groups of 5-8 participants, and 3 monthly boost sessions (to review the strategies and practice solving problems as well). The main strategy was to use cognitive rehabilitation strategies to promote generalization in this process to improve memory and behavior.

Interventions

ExerciseBEHAVIORAL

Prescription exercise: frequency, intensity, type, time, and progression (FITT-PRO). 150 min/week (the intensity will be moderate). exercise routine: warming up, resistance training and aerobic exercise training(range of motion and flexibility exercises)
