This study investigates Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI) and focuses on motor changes that may occur early in cognitive decline. The purpose is to explore the concept of motor reserve, which might indicate early stages of dementia.
The study evaluates how motor characteristics contribute to managing cognitive decline. It assesses motor performance through clinical, neuropsychological, behavioral, and movement analyses.
- Who can participate: Adults aged 40 to 85 years, either with Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI) or healthy individuals, who speak Italian and can understand the tests, may participate. Participants must provide informed consent.
- Study details: Participants will perform standardized motor tasks and undergo movement analyses using a sensor-based device. In this study, a placebo is not used.
