Brief Summary: The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate if the CO-OP Cognitive Orientation to daily Occupational Performance approach supported by creative dance can improve cognitive functions in older adults with mild cognitive impairment MCI The study focuses on the effects of this intervention on executive functions attention memory and dual-task performance

The main questions this study aims to answer are

Does the CO-OP approach with creative dance improve executive functions attention and memory more than CO-OP alone How effective is this intervention in enhancing dual-task performance compared to the standard CO-OP approach

Participants will

Engage in either the CO-OP intervention alone or the CO-OP approach combined with creative dance for 8 weeks

Complete cognitive tasks participate in creative dance activities and perform daily tasks during the sessions
Detailed Description: This clinical trial aims to assess the effectiveness of a Cognitive Orientation to daily Occupational Performance CO-OP approach enhanced with creative dance in older adults with mild cognitive impairment MCI The CO-OP method is a cognitive rehabilitation strategy that helps individuals improve occupational performance through goal-setting problem-solving and the use of metacognitive strategies In this study the CO-OP approach will be integrated with creative dance movements a form of physical and artistic expression known to stimulate both cognitive and motor functions

The study will enroll 24 participants between the ages of 65 and 85 diagnosed with MCI according to DSM-5 criteria Participants will be randomly assigned to two groups

CO-OP with Creative Dance Group This group will receive the CO-OP intervention along with creative dance sessions The creative dance component will consist of simple movements designed to improve motor coordination memory and attention all while fostering social interaction and emotional expression

CO-OP Only Group This group will undergo the CO-OP approach alone without any creative dance involvement

The intervention will last for 8 weeks with three 60-minute sessions each week During the sessions participants in the CO-OP with creative dance group will alternate between cognitive tasks and dance-based activities The sessions are designed to progressively challenge cognitive and motor skills while ensuring safety and comfort for older adults

The primary outcome measures include improvements in executive functions attention memory and dual-task performance Cognitive function will be assessed using standardized neuropsychological tests such as the Trail Making Test Part B for executive function Stroop Test for attention Rey-Osterrieth Complex Figure Test for memory and dual-task assessments combining walking with cognitive tasks Participants quality of life will be measured using the SF-36 Health Survey and depression and social isolation will be evaluated through the Geriatric Depression Scale GDS and UCLA Loneliness Scale respectively

Secondary measures will focus on the potential emotional and social benefits of integrating creative dance into the CO-OP approach These will include participant feedback on enjoyment and perceived improvements in social interaction and emotional well-being The trial will also explore whether the addition of creative dance enhances motivation engagement and adherence to the intervention

Data will be collected at baseline at the end of the 8-week intervention and again at 3 and 6 months post-intervention to evaluate both short-term and long-term effects Statistical analysis will be conducted using repeated measures ANOVA to assess changes over time between groups

This study is expected to provide insights into how integrating creative dance with the CO-OP approach can potentially offer a more holistic and effective intervention for older adults with MCI addressing both cognitive and physical domains while also promoting social interaction and emotional health
