Summary

This study aims to evaluate the implementation and effectiveness of a group-based brain-computer interface cognitive training among community dwelling older adults in Singapore. A 12-week bi-weekly programme was conducted in community centres. During these sessions, participants played games targeting cognitive domains such as attention, memory, and decision making, using a mobile application (Memorie). Selected games were paired with an electroencephalography headset (Senzeband) which quantified participants' attention level into scores that affected the participants' in-game avatar control or game performance. Each participant paid a subsidized fee of SGD$20 for the programme.
