This study focuses on exploring the effectiveness of interventions in two community-based language rehabilitation care centers located in an economically underdeveloped region of northwest China.
The research focuses on 35 older adults with cognitive-linguistic decline enrolled in both centers. The interventions provided to the participants include auditory training, sign language use enhancement, second language interest classes, and the promotion of elderly-mode applications on smartphones.
The interventions were particularly effective in enhancing auditory processing and language comprehension skills. Additionally, the promotion of elderly-mode applications on smartphones proved to be a valuable tool in improving participants' language cognition.
The study underscores the importance of tailored community-based interventions in improving language skills and cognition and provides a basis for further research in this area.
本研究聚焦于探索位于中国西北经济欠发达地区的两个社区语言康复护理中心干预措施的有效性。
该研究关注于两个中心招收的35名认知语言能力衰退的老年人。为参与者提供的干预措施包括听觉训练、增强手语使用、第二语言兴趣班以及推广智能手机上的老年模式应用程序。
这些干预措施在增强听觉处理和语言理解技能方面特别有效。此外,推广智能手机上的老年模式应用程序被证明是提高参与者语言认知的一个有价值的工具。
该研究强调了量身定制的社区干预措施在提高语言技能和认知方面的重要性,并为该领域的进一步研究提供了基础。
