Abstract

Based on research conducted from 2002 to 2012, what non-pharmacological interventions may improve or maintain cognitive function in community dwelling adults, over 50 years old, with no known cognitive impairment?

What are the effects of non-pharmacological interventions on cognitive function in the above population?

The main objective of this systematic review is to investigate and synthesise evidence on the effects of interventions aimed at improving or maintaining cognitive function in community dwelling older adults with no known cognitive impairment. Interventions to be reviewed will include cognitive training, general mental stimulation, social engagement, exercise, and diet. Each intervention will be reviewed separately.
