実験的:Experimental Group
The experimental group carried out a 30-session multi-factorial group memory training program (UMAM method), with a frequency of three weekly sessions of 90 minutes each. The training program consists of four modules: 1- Stimulation of cognitive processes; learning and practicing internal memory strategies and solving everyday forgetfulness; 2- Instruction in basic concepts about memory; 3- Intervention on daily living and forgetting experiences, using internal and external strategies to solve everyday memory failures; 4- Metacognition or metamemory: the subjects were to reflect about their cognitive failures by analyzing the causes and variables of those failures. In addition, the experimental group followed the standard activities in which all users attending the Center are involved (planned interviews, dialogue-conferences, general health recommendations, etc.). |

Change in general cognition
時間枠:This cognitive variable was assessed before and after the intervention. The interval between the pre and post-intervention assessment was 6 months.
