Background and Aims: Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI) is a transitional state between normal cognitive aging and dementia, characterized by a decline in cognitive functions such as memory, attention, and executive functions. This study aimed to compare the effects of dual-task physical-cognitive training and rhythmic movements on the executive functions of elderly individuals with MCI.
Materials and Methods: This study included 40 elderly individuals with mild cognitive impairment, who were randomly assigned to either the Dual-Task Training (DTT) group or the Rhythmic Movement Intervention (RMI) group. They participated in 60-minute sessions three times a week for 12 weeks. They participated in 60-minute sessions three times a week for 12 weeks.
Results: The results indicated that both types of interventions led to improvements in executive functions. However, the rhythmic movement intervention group demonstrated greater improvements in executive functions compared to the dual-task training group.
Conclusion: This study suggests that combining physical and cognitive exercises can be an effective strategy for enhancing executive functions in elderly individuals with MCI and delaying the progression of dementia.
Keywords: Mild Cognitive Impairment, Executive Functions, Dual-Task, Rhythmic Movements
