Effects of Adapted Sports on Balance, Physical Function, and Cognitive Function in Older Adults
Sponsor: Alanya Alaaddin Keykubat University
Summary
This randomized controlled study aims to investigate the effects of adapted sports exercises on balance, physical function, and cognitive function in older adults. Participants will be randomly assigned to an intervention group and a control group. The intervention group will participate in a structured adapted sports exercise program, while the control group will maintain their usual daily activities. Balance, physical performance, and cognitive function will be assessed before and after the intervention period using standardized assessment tools. The findings of this study are expected to contribute to understanding the role of adapted physical activity in improving functional and cognitive health in older adults.
