Study Overview
=================
Brief Summary
-----------------
Investigation of the Effect Of Green Walking and Intelligence Games on the Cognitive Skills of Individuals Between the Ages of 50-70 Survived COVID-19 Disease The randomized controlled study to examine the effects of green walking and intelligence games on the cognitive skills of individuals aged 50-70 years who had COVID-19 on an outpatient basis were completed with 40 individuals, 20 of which were in the green walking and intelligence game group and 20 were in the control group.

Detailed Description
-----------------
The data were collected in Erzincan Tercan State Hospital between January-May 2022, Patient Information Form, Montreal Cognitive Assessment Implementation Guideline, Brain Games (Brain Games-Memory Thinking and Brain Exercise) Information Leaflet, Hiking Information Brochure, and Experimental Group Follow-up Form by the Montreal Cognitive Assessment Scale applied as a pre-test.
