Summary

The number of dementia patients increased with aging population. People with subjective memory complaints or mild cognitive impairment (MCI) may have a high risk of developing dementia. Cognitive /memory training programs have shown the potential positive effects for improving or maintaining the cognitive progression. However, the impact of those cognitive progressions on functional ability and quality of life is not well understood. In addition, it appears to have large variability responsiveness among trained subjects. Most studies did not examine the individual difference associated with training. The major aim will evaluate the cognitive training programs on functional ability and quality of life in older adults. The results will be expected to understand the effectiveness of the computerized virtual reality training, improving or maintaining cognition, physical and psychosocial function, enhancing quality of life, and reducing the risk of developing disability even conversion into dementia in later life.
