Effect of interactive multitouch game-based cognitive intervention on cognitive function in older adults: A randomized controlled trial.

ABSTRACT:

Purpose

This study investigated the effects of an interactive multitouch game-based cognitive intervention (ICI) on cognitive function in community-dwelling older adults.

Methods

Thirty-two older adults (19 women) between 65 and 84 years of age (mean age, 74.47 ± 4.30 years) without a history of neurological disease participated. They were randomized into two groups: intervention and control. The intervention group took part in ICI sessions using HAPPYTABLE® (Spring Soft Co.
