Abstract

Background. The concept of cognitive (from Latin cognosere, to know or to recognize) refers to the ability to process information, applying knowledge, and change the trend. cognitive function of the elderly can be optimized through a variety of ways, one of that way is the brain training game (Brain Age). The game was created specifically to train the cognitive function of elderly. Objective. To determine the effect of Brain Ag) to the improvement of cognitive function in the elderly in Malang. Methods. Quasi-experimental pretest-posttest approach, the treatment and control groups, and the sampling is done with purposive sampling to obtain the 20 respondents. Data collection instrument in this study are in general cognitive tests by using a measuring instrument MMSE. Then the data were analyzed by Mann-Whitney test showed p value 0.000 <α 0.05. Results. There is the effect of therapy brain training game (Brain Age) on increasing cognitive function of elderly in Malang. Conclusion. Therapy of brain training game (Brain Age) can be used as an alternative method of nursing actions that can be implemented in nursing geriatric and to consider inter-community cooperation between the elderly or nursing home.

脑龄对提高老年人认知功能的影响

背景。认知的概念(来自拉丁语cognosere，知道或认识)是指处理信息、应用知识和改变趋势的能力。老年人的认知功能可以通过多种方式得到优化，其中一种方式就是大脑训练游戏(brain Age)。这个游戏是专门为训练老年人的认知功能而设计的。目标。目的:探讨脑抗原(Brain Ag)对改善麻郎地区老年人认知功能的影响。方法。采用准实验前测后测的方法，分为实验组和对照组，抽样采用有目的抽样，获得20名调查对象。本研究的数据收集工具是在一般认知测试中使用测量仪器MMSE。经Mann-Whitney检验，p值为0.000 <α 0.05。结果。治疗性脑训练游戏(brain Age)对提高玛琅地区老年人认知功能的影响。结论。脑训练游戏疗法(brain Age)可以作为一种替代的护理行动方法，可以在老年护理中实施，并考虑老年人或养老院之间的社区间合作。
