Cognitive function refers to the mental processes involved in acquiring knowledge and understanding, including memory, attention, reasoning, perception, and problem-solving. It encompasses how individuals think, learn, and remember, playing a crucial role in daily activities and decision-making.

To measure cognitive function, various standardized assessments are employed, such as:

Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE): Evaluates cognitive impairment.

Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA): Assesses multiple cognitive domains.

Neuropsychological tests: Measure specific cognitive abilities like memory and executive function.

These tools help identify cognitive strengths and weaknesses, guiding interventions for improvement or support.

Hi, I realized that it seems the concept “outcome” is different from the term “output”. Taking the grandparent training project as an example, what is the “outcome’ referable?
