The Cognitive Behavioral Model of Everyday Memory intervention improved memory self-efficacy and strategy use in older adults. Eight sessions were sufficient to enhance memory skills and confidence in retirement village residents.

Area of Science:

  • Gerontology
  • Cognitive Psychology
  • Behavioral Science

Background:

  • Memory decline is a common concern for older adults.
  • Cognitive Behavioral Interventions (CBI) show promise for improving cognitive function.
  • Everyday memory challenges impact daily living and quality of life in seniors.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate the effectiveness of an eight-session Cognitive Behavioral Model of Everyday Memory (CBMEM).
  • To assess changes in memory self-efficacy, strategy use, and performance in retirement village residents.

Main Methods:

  • A pre-post quasiexperimental design was employed.
  • Participants (N=78) from a retirement village in Northeast Ohio were included.
  • The intervention consisted of eight sessions of the CBMEM program.

Main Results:

  • Significant improvements were observed in memory self-efficacy and the use of internal memory strategies.
  • Moderate gains were noted in instrumental activities and perceived change.
  • Smaller gains were found in locus of control and objective memory performance.

Conclusions:

  • The eight-session CBMEM intervention is effective in enhancing memory self-efficacy and strategy use among older adults.
  • The intervention appears adequate in dose and facilitates mastery of memory techniques.
  • Further research could explore long-term effects and broader applicability.
