Abstract

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of a cognitive enhancement program combined Silbot on cognitive function, depression, and dementia prevention behavior in the elderly complaining of subjective memory decline. The subjects were 170 elderly people living in Seongnam-si, Gyeonggi-do, and the study was performed at a welfare center. A total of 20 sessions program using Silbot and physical activity was developed and applied, and were evaluated using the Korean version of Montreal Cognitive Assessment (K-MoCA), Geriatric depression Scale(GDS) , and Dementia Prevention Behavior before and after intervention. As a result of the study, the cognitive enhancement program combined Silbot showed statistically significant changes in cognitive function (t=-4.49, p<.001) and depression (t=2.58, p=.023) in the elderly. Therefore, it is expected that the cognitive enhancement program using Silbot will be a useful program that can enhance the cognitive function of the elderly and reduce depression.

본 연구는 실봇을 병용한 인지강화 프로그램이 주관적 기억력 저하를 호소하는 노인의 인지기능, 우울 및 치매예방행위에 미치는 효과를 알아보고자 하였다. 대상자는 경기도 성남시에 거주하는 노인 17명을 대상으로 복지관에서 수행되었다. 실봇과 인지강화를 병용한 총 20회기 프로그램을 개발하여 적용하였으며 중재 전과 후에 한국 몬트리올 인지평가(K-MoCA), 우울(GDS), 치매예방행위(DPB)를 평가하였다. 연구결과, 실봇을 병용한 인지강화 프로그램은 노인의 인지기능(t=-4.49, p<.001), 우울(t=2.58, p=.023)에서 통계적으로 유의한 차이가 있었다. 따라서 실봇을 병용한 인지강화 프로그램이 노인의 인지기능 향상 및 우울 완화에 유용한 프로그램이 될 것으로 기대된다.
