A Computer-based Memory Strategy Training Program for Older Adults

The objectives of the study are to investigate the feasibility and pilot-test the benefits of the computer-based E-MinD Life (Semantic) program to promote everyday performance in healthy older adults, older adults with memory complaints, mild cognitive impairment (MCI) and mild dementia in Hong Kong using a randomised control trial. Three groups of participants will be recruited: (1) 15 healthy older adults, (2) 15 older adults aged over 65 years with memory complaints, or older adults aged over 65 years, meeting the diagnostic criteria for MCI with a Clinical Dementia Rating score of 0 or having mild dementia with a Clinical Dementia Rating score of 1. All participants will have no depression and other clinical conditions that may affect their cognition. Their scores on the Montreal Cognitive Assessment will be recorded. Their carers or family members are invited to participate.
