Synchrony in Old Age: Playing the Mirror Game Improves Cognitive Performance.

CONCLUSIONS: Our preliminary findings suggest that the mirror-game, rather than the exercise class, may have an immediate impact on mood and some attentional functions. CLINICAL IMPLICATIONS: The mirror-game is a novel intervention, with potential benefits of social-emotional and cognitive functioning, which can be easily implemented into the daily routine care of older adults. Future studies should explore the effect of the mirror-game on additional cognitive and socio-emotional aspects. PMID: 32762289 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
