Brief Summary:
The SHARP-MCI study tests impact of walking and social reminiscence on cognitive function, blood pressure, and weight among healthy Black Americans and those experiencing mild cognitive impairment (MCI).
Detailed Description:
For 6 months (24 weeks), triads of healthy and MCI Black adults aged 55 and over walk 3x/week (1 mile) in Portland's historically Black neighborhoods. Triads follow GPS-mapped routes accessible via the SHARP walking application on a group tablet device. At three points along each route, GPS-triggered "Memory Markers" (historical images of local Black culture and life from1940-2010) appear on the tablet screen serving as a conversational reminisce prompt as the triad walks. At baseline and 24 weeks, cognitive function is measured via the Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA), and weight and blood pressure are measured. Pre-post health surveys rate activity levels, days feeling downhearted/blue, energy level, and health status. Program evaluation surveys at month 1, 3, 6 assess mood, pace and dose of walking, prompt effectiveness, program readiness, and liklihood to recommend program to others. Focus groups at month 1, 3, 6 evaluate participants' program experience and needed changes.
