Interventions/Control_1

Participants will perform a home-based dual-task intervention incorporating cognitive stimulation into personally meaningful daily activities for six months. Up to five important daily activities will be identified based on the Canadian Occupational Performance Measure, and participants will select cognitive tasks, such as word-chain games, calculation, recall, and memory exercises, to be combined with these activities. Participants will be encouraged to perform the dual tasks three to four times per week for approximately 10 minutes per session. They will record the frequency of cognitive task performance and their impressions in a diary. Participants will be instructed not to perform the tasks when experiencing pain or fatigue.

Interventions/Control_2

Participants in the control group will continue their usual daily lives for six months. After the 6-month study period, participants assigned to the control group will be offered the opportunity to receive the same dual-task program incorporating cognitive stimulation into personally meaningful daily activities, if desired.
