About

The aim of this study is to investigate the relationship between cognitive functions with physical performance, grip strength, walking speed, mobility, and frailty in geriatric individuals.

Decline in cognitive function and decline in physical performance are generally associated with advanced age. Cognitive dysfunction is a natural consequence of ageing and is an important factor in maintaining quality of life and independence. Investigating the relationship between cognition, physical performance, mobility, and frailty has become a challenging issue in recent years. However, there is a need to further clarify the direction of this cognitive-motor link.
