Summary

The aim of the study is to determine: (1) the effects of combined physical exercise and cognitive training versus exercise or cognitive training alone on cognition, physical function, daily function, quality of life and social participation outcomes, (2) determine the relative effects of simultaneous vs. sequential combination of physical exercise and cognitive training on these health-related outcomes, (3) determine the long-term effects of different types of trainings on these outcome measures.

Conditions

Interventions

OTHER

cognitive training

We will be using commercialized cognitive-based training programs in order to facilitate several cognitive functions. We will be targeting attention, recognition, color and shape identification, calculation, visual perception, visuospatial processing and executive function. Participants will perform tasks designed to enhance different types of cognitive functions. Cognitive program difficulty will be adjusted automatically and continuously based on each participant's level of performance.

OTHER

physical exercise training

The physical exercise programs will involve balance or strength training or aerobic exercises. These may include (but not limited to) stepping, walking, dancing, ball kicking and throwing, and etc. The exercise session will be break up into 2 to 3 parts, and the participants can rest as needed during the exercise period. The exercise intensity will be progressed as the participants improve their performance throughout practice. To prevent exercise-induced injuries, vital signs and the Borg Perceived Exertion Scale will be monitored and recorded in each training session. If the training therapist observed that the exercise may be too intense for the participants, he/she will immediately reduce the training intensity.
