Mind over motion: could Future-Thinking get seniors moving?

NCT ID NCT07554027

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study tests a new approach called Episodic Future Thinking (EFT) to encourage physical activity in older adults with motoric cognitive risk syndrome (MCR), a condition that raises the risk of dementia. Researchers will randomly assign 166 participants to receive EFT or a control intervention and measure changes in their intention to exercise and actual activity levels. The goal is to see if imagining positive future events can motivate seniors to be more active and potentially slow cognitive decline.
