Registry summary

The goal of this Stage 1 (NIH Stage Model) Intervention Development cross-site project is to develop, using a user-centered design approach, and evaluate an innovative intelligent adaptive software package aimed at providing cognitive and social support and engagement to older adults with mild cognitive impairment (MCI). The system will be designed to adapt to the needs and abilities of the user. The investigator's goal is to develop a unique and highly innovative technology tool that can provide adaptive support to aging individuals with MCI, even as cognition might deteriorate further. Speech data collected as part of an embedded reminiscence feature will advance fundamental knowledge of how speech and language production data might serve as an early indicator of cognitive decline.
