Summary

The goal of this single-blind randomized control trial is to compare a 6-week Integrated Attention Training Program (IATP) and health education in older people with co-occurrence of anxiety symptoms and subjective cognitive decline (SCC).

The study aims to answer if a 6-week Integrated Attention Training Program (IATP) will improve cognitive, anxiety, and level of pro-inflammatory biomarkers in this high-risk group.

Older adults with co-occurring anxiety and SCC will be recruited to participate in a 6-week single-blind randomized controlled trial. IATP group (Intervention group) will undergo attention and functional training. Control group will receive health education.

Investigators will compare the IATP with health education to see if cognitive function, anxiety symptoms, and level of pro-inflammatory biomarkers in comparison to health education will improved after intervention and over 24 weeks.
