Effects of Adaptive Difficulty Computerized Cognitive Training on Cognitive Function Improvement in Older Adults With Mild Cognitive Impairment

4 augusti 2026 uppdaterad av: Zhang Ziyi, China Medical University, China
This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of adaptive computerized cognitive training (CCT) in improving cognitive function among community-dwelling older adults with mild cognitive impairment (MCI) and to compare the maintenance effects of different training frequencies after the initial intervention. A quasi-experimental study will be conducted in three communities in Shenyang, Liaoning Province, China. All participants will receive a 12-week adaptive CCT program. Participants will be assigned to either a high-frequency maintenance training group or a training discontinuation group. Cognitive assessments will be performed at baseline, immediately after the intervention, and during follow-up. The primary outcome is global cognitive function, while secondary outcomes include memory, attention, executive function, language, visuospatial ability, and activities of daily living. The findings of this study are expected to provide evidence for optimizing computerized cognitive training programs and long-term management strategies for older adults with MCI in community settings.

Studieöversikt

Detaljerad beskrivning

With the rapid aging of the global population, mild cognitive impairment (MCI) has become a critical stage for dementia prevention and early intervention. Cognitive training is recognized as one of the most effective non-pharmacological interventions for individuals with MCI. Among various approaches, adaptive computerized cognitive training (CCT) can dynamically adjust task difficulty according to an individual's performance, thereby improving training personalization, engagement, and adherence. However, evidence regarding the optimal maintenance training frequency and the long-term sustainability of cognitive benefits remains limited.

This study adopts a quasi-experimental design and will recruit community-dwelling adults aged 60 years and older with MCI from three communities in Shenyang, Liaoning Province, China. All participants will complete a 12-week adaptive computerized cognitive training program using the Heling Brain Planet WeChat mini-program, with training sessions lasting 30 minutes, three times per week. After the initial intervention, participants will be assigned to either a high-frequency maintenance training group, which will continue training three times per week, or a training discontinuation group, which will receive routine community health management only. Follow-up cognitive assessments will be conducted after the intervention and during the follow-up period.

The primary outcome will be global cognitive function assessed by the Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA). Secondary outcomes will include memory (Auditory Verbal Learning Test, AVLT), attention (Trail Making Test Part A, TMT-A), executive function (Stroop Color-Word Test), language (Boston Naming Test, BNT), visuospatial ability (Clock Drawing Test, CDT), and activities of daily living (ADL). The effects of different maintenance training frequencies on cognitive improvement and the persistence of intervention benefits will be compared.

This study is expected to evaluate the effectiveness of adaptive computerized cognitive training for improving cognitive function in community-dwelling older adults with MCI and to determine whether continued maintenance training can prolong cognitive benefits. The findings will provide evidence for optimizing community-based digital cognitive training programs and developing sustainable intervention strategies for the long-term management of older adults with MCI.

Intervention / Behandling
Experimentell: High-Frequency Maintenance Training
Participants will receive adaptive computerized cognitive training using the Heling Brain Planet WeChat mini-program. During the initial intervention phase, participants will complete training sessions three times per week for 30 minutes per session over 12 weeks. After the initial intervention, participants will continue maintenance training three times per week until the end of the follow-up period. The training program automatically adjusts task difficulty according to individual performance and includes exercises targeting attention, memory, executive function, language, visuospatial ability, and other cognitive domains.
Participants receive adaptive computerized cognitive training delivered through the Heling Brain Planet WeChat mini- program. The intervention consists of individualized cognitive exercises targeting multiple cognitive domains, including attention, memory, executive function, language, visuospatial ability, perceptual-motor function, and social cognition. The training difficulty is automatically adjusted according to each participant's performance to provide personalized cognitive stimulation. During the initial intervention phase, all participants complete 30-minute training sessions three times per week for 3 months. After the initial intervention, participants choose to continue training receive maintenance adaptive computerized cognitive training.

Participants will receive the same 12-week adaptive computerized cognitive training program during the initial intervention phase. After completing the initial intervention, no further computerized cognitive training will be provided. Participants will continue to receive routine community health management and will complete follow-up cognitive assessments according to the study schedule.
