Brain training eases anxiety and boosts memory in seniors

This study tested a 6-week Integrated Attention Training Program (IATP) in 120 older adults (ages 60-90) who had both anxiety symptoms and memory complaints. Participants were split into two groups: one received the attention training, and the other received health education. The goal was to see if the training could improve thinking skills, reduce anxiety, and lower inflammation levels. Results were measured right after the program and again 24 weeks later.
