The Outcome of a Week of Intensive Cognitive Stimulation in an Elderly Care Setup: A Pilot Test

Résumé

— In the context of a worldwide aging population, it is important to find solutions to help the elderly maintain their cognitive functions. This research was done in the context of the ENRICHME. We investigate the outcome of a 5 day intensive cognitive stimulation with an elderly individual. Each day was composed of two sessions (one at 11am, and one at 3pm). During each session the participant played three cognitive games (i.e., digit cancellation, integer matrix task, Stroop game), two of them having two difficulty levels. The mood of the participant was also recorded before and after each interaction session. Evidence was found that even after a few sessions, the performance of the participant increased for all games. The performance of each game and each difficulty level was analyzed based on the interaction time (11am or 3pm) and the interaction day. A detailed analysis of the performance is presented together with a discussion of these results.
