Summary

The World Health Organization (WHO) defines "Active Aging" as continued engagement in social, economic, cultural, spiritual, and civic activities, emphasizing the importance of participation for older adults. Personal health behaviors and habits influence both longevity and health status in later life, with healthy lifestyle development optimizing aging and enhancing well-being and quality of life. WHO's Integrated Care for Older People (ICOPE) highlights six key indicators of physical and mental function-mobility, cognition, nutrition, vision, hearing, and depression-as critical to promoting active aging. These factors are also used to evaluate aging outcomes. Multidomain interventions are employed to address cognitive decline and dementia. While research supports the benefits of multidomain interventions for cognitive improvement in older adults, consistent findings are lacking. Most interventions focus on exercise and cognitive training, with limited attention to other aging risk factors. Broader, more diverse interventions that actively involve older adults are needed to confirm the effects of these factors on cognitive function. This study aims to evaluate the effects of multidomain interventions-covering exercise, cognitive training, nutrition, chronic disease management, vision and hearing care, fall prevention, psychosocial factors, and sleep-on mobility, cognition, daily functioning, and social participation in community-dwelling older adults
