Abstract
Introduction & Purpose: The purpose of the present study was to determine the effect of mind-body exercises with cognitive-motor approach on executive functions of elderly with cognitive processing disorder. Methodology: In this quasi-experimental study, 20 elderly people with cognitive impairment (mean height 150 ± 3.3 cm, weight 35.04 ± 3.6 kg, age 9.45 2 2.5 years) were targeted and available. They were selected and randomly divided into two groups. This quasi-experimental and applied research was conducted as a two-group pretest-posttest research design that measured cognitive functions. Results: Statistical analysis was performed using ANOVA at the significant level of p≤0.05. The results of this study showed that mind-body exercises with cognitive-motor approach had positive effect on executive functions of elderly with cognitive processing disorder (p₌0.05). Conclusion: Based on the results, mind-body exercises with cognitive-motor approach have improved executive functions, so long-term exercise can be an effective intervention for improving executive functions in elderly with cognitive processing disorder.
