Online Group-based Dual-task Training to Improve Cognitive Function of Community-dwelling Older Adults

Participants will receive a one-hour online group-based dual-task training session twice a week for 12 weeks, giving a total intervention time of 24 hours. A co-design approach will be adopted to develop the training components in the dual-tasks. For the cognitive training component, arithmetic operation, verbal fluency, and upper limb/ finger movements are included. For the physical training component, we select chair-based exercises are included. A group-based training mode led by a facilitator will be adopted. During the session, participants will be asked to turn on their camera so that they can see and interact with each other. They will also have their audio on as they will have to participate in the cognitive tasks by voicing out their answers.

Participants will receive eight one-hour online group-based interactive education on health topics other than exercise and cognitive health.
