The Effect of Board Games on the Cognitive Decline of Elders with Dementia: Evidence from Electroencephalography (EEG) Signals

The current investigation conducted a 14-day board game activity and observed the brainwave changes of people with dementia after playing table games through EEG, which in turn helped us understand whether table games could slack their cognitive decline. Furthermore, this study adopted the observation method to explore how table game activities facilitate the social behavior and interpersonal interaction of dementia patients.
