Abstract

A study conducted at Allameh Tabataba'i University compared the effectiveness of a cognitive exergame called Neurolight to computerized cognitive games in enhancing cognitive and motor functions in elderly individuals aged 60 to 69. The research found that cognitive-motor exercises using Neurolight significantly improved working memory, inhibitory control, and balance in this age group. The study suggests that combined cognitive and physical exercises may have a better effect on enhancing cognitive and motor functions in the elderly, and the use of this exercise system is recommended for coaches and therapists working with this population.
