Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The goal of this feasibility study is to test the feasibility of a group intervention program based on health management principles for older adults with Subjective Cognitive Decline (SCD). SCD is a condition where individuals feel that their memory is worsening, although standard tests do not detect it. This perceived memory decline can lead to negative feelings and self-perception, causing people to withdraw from meaningful activities.

This study aims to answer three main questions:

1. Is the intervention feasible in terms of fidelity, adherence, and participant satisfaction?
2. Are the assessments used sensitive enough to identify the unique challenges faced by the SCD population and detect changes after the intervention?
3. What are the preliminary effects of the intervention on participants' perceptions of how SCD affects their daily life, mental health, and quality of life?

Participants will:

1. Take part in 14 weekly group sessions focused on managing the challenges of living with SCD and improving participation in daily activities.
2. Complete assessments before and after the intervention to measure their satisfaction with the program, and track changes in their perceptions of daily life, mental health, and quality of life.

Cog Fun Ageing intervention

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Cog Fun Ageing intervention

Intervention Type OTHER

Cog Fun Ageing is a group-based occupation-centered intervention aimed at promoting positive occupational experiences despite cognitive challenges in day to day life. The intervention includes 14 weekly 120-minute group sessions led by experienced occupational therapists. Sessions incorporate learning about the bio-psycho-social factors of SCD and strategies to manage and cope with occupational challenges resulting from SCD.
