Identifying Training Protocol for Brain Exercise Among the Mild Cognitively Impaired (MCI) Elderly: A qEEG Study

This article report the dominant brain waves of Mild cognitive impaired (MCI) elderly with the objective of identifying the appropriate training protocol for the intervention. 64 participants volunteered for the study. However, the screening using Mini mental state showed a total of 56 subjects were...
