Likely a good fit

Ideal candidates for this study are individuals aged 60 and older diagnosed with Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI) or Subjective Cognitive Decline (SCD).

Probably not a fit

Patients with severe hearing or language impairments, or those with conditions that prevent them from undergoing MRI examinations, may not benefit from this study.

What this trial studies

This observational study aims to culturally adapt the Cognitive Leisure Activity Scale (CLAS) into Chinese and assess its reliability and validity. It will investigate the relationship between cognitive leisure activities and cognitive function in individuals at the preclinical stage of Alzheimer's Disease (AD). Additionally, the study seeks to clarify how cognitive leisure activities influence neural circuits in patients with Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI) and Subjective Cognitive Decline (SCD). By understanding these connections, the research hopes to inform early intervention strategies for AD.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, this study could lead to targeted interventions that delay or prevent the onset of Alzheimer's disease.

How similar studies have gone: While the specific approach of this study is novel, previous research has indicated that cognitive leisure activities can positively influence cognitive function in various populations.
