Summary

This study watches how daily emotional stress impacts memory and thinking in adults aged 60 and older living in Seoul, Korea. Participants use a smartphone app to report their feelings and do quick brain games, wear a smartwatch, and give blood samples. Researchers will check in after 6 months and 1 year to see how stress and social connections relate to cognitive changes.

Who is studied

This study targets community-dwelling older adults aged 60 and older in Seoul, Republic of Korea. Participants are recruited from the Seongbuk Senior Welfare Center and Gangbuk Municipal Senior Welfare Center. Seongbuk-gu and Gangbuk-gu are districts with higher proportions of older adults and elevated chronic disease rates compared to other areas in Seoul, making them regions of interest for aging research. The study population includes older adults living independently in the community who utilize local senior welfare center services. By recruiting from these districts, the study aims to generate evidence for developing effective dementia prevention strategies applicable to community-based settings in Korea. Participants must be Samsung Galaxy smartphone users with sufficient cognitive ability to engage with ecological momentary assessment (EMA) protocols. Exclusions: dementia diagnosis, severe sensory impairments, or health conditions preventing participation.
