摘要:COGNITIVE INTERVENTION PROPOSAL IN OLDER PEOPLE: COGNITIVE STIMULATION AND EMOTIONAL INTELLIGENCE PROGRAM FOR OLDER PEOPLEOur current sociodemographic reality, with a large number of older persons and other variables, leads to some changes in the population’s demands for socio-health care. Thus, there is a demand for the stimulation of cognitive capacities, and this type of activities is carried in practically all the Day-Care Centers and Active Ageing Programs. In recent years, within Psychology of Ageing, the study of the emotional changes undergone by older individuals—the study of the so-called “Emotional Ageing”—has also reached a peak. Thus, the present project has the aim of combining both aspects, cognitive stimulation and the education of emotions. The general goal is to design and implement a Program of Cognitive Stimulation and Emotional Intelligence for older people with no cognitive impairment, in the center of the City of Almería. It would only allow us to assess and analyze the relation between different concepts, such as Quality of Life, Emotional Intelligence, Life Satisfaction, Attention and Daily Memory, and also to confirm the improvement in the cognitive tasks of the program (time and correct responses) and the benefits for the above-mentioned variables of introducing both aspects—including the New Technologies—to the older people of the center of Almería. This would also improve their activity and social integration, as well as provide them with equal opportunities.
