What this Trial Is About
Researchers are evaluating a program designed to improve resilience in people over 60 years old who have minor neurocognitive disorder. This program combines cognitive behavioral therapy, positive psychology, mindfulness meditation, and yoga. The study compares this mixed intervention to a control group with no intervention and another group receiving cognitive stimulation, to determine if improvements are due to the specific therapies or simply participant management. Participants will attend 12 weekly group sessions over three months. One group receives cognitive stimulation, another receives the mixed intervention involving yoga, mindfulness, and therapy techniques, while a control group does not receive any intervention. After the three-month intervention period, participants will have evaluations immediately before and after the sessions, plus follow-up assessments one month and three months later. Throughout the study, researchers will measure changes in resilience using specific scales before and after the interventions, and during the follow-up period. Participants will be monitored for how well the improvements last over time. The total involvement includes the initial screening, intervention or control period, and follow-up assessments over approximately six months.
