To prevent deterioration of cognitive functions is important because it means to reduce the number of people who develop or progress to dementia. In the article “Daily Activities and Cognitive Functions among the Elderly” of this issue of the Taiwanese Journal of Psychiatry, Tseng and colleagues are reporting that engagement in either solitary or social activities was found to have buffering effects of cognitive function, that novel arts-related activities showed the benefit of reducing the risk of cognitive function declined by about 30%, and that exercising or engaging in community recreational activities reduced the risk by about 17%. They also found that after controlling for the basic characteristics of the subjects, multivariate analysis showed that participation in diverse daily activities was significantly beneficial in reducing damage to the cognitive function of elder individuals. |
