One of the cognitive changes older adults worry about and fear most is memory loss. Some older adults may assume that any memory loss means that they are developing dementia. However some memory loss that occurs with aging is normal and can be managed by understanding why it occurs and using memory-training exercises to reduce its impact.
Use your module readings and the Argosy University online library resources to research memory training for older adults. Select an authoritative research article for use in this assignment.
Based on the article and one of the cognitive theories covered in your readings design your own study that tests a program for memory training in older adults. In your paper include the following:
Your paper should include a title page with a running head an abstract and a reference page. The body of the paper should be at least 5 pages in length. It should be double-spaced and in 12 point Times New Roman font with normal one-inch margins written in APA style and free of typographical and grammatical errors.
