Study how thinking abilities affect planning movement
Part of Mental health clinical trials.
This study looks at how well people can plan and control movements, and whether thinking ability affects that process. It compares healthy younger adults, healthy older adults, and older adults with mild cognitive problems.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Be between 18 and 40 years old, or be over 55
- Be able to give oral consent (you understand and agree to join)
- Have right-handedness
- For the older healthy group: your thinking test score (MMSE) must be above 26
- For the mild cognitive disorder group: you must have a neurologist diagnosis at the University Hospital of Dijon (CMRR) using their recommended process
- Avoid recent medications that could affect thinking or movement, and meet other study safety checks

Other trials that look related to this one.
This study looks at how well people with mild cognitive problems can think and move, using brief learning/thinking tests and a walking task. It may help researchers understand changes early enough to guide future care.
This study looks at memory and thinking changes using questionnaires, memory testing, and brain scans. It may help researchers better understand neurodegeneration and dementia and how these problems show up over time.
This study looks at whether light-to-moderate physical activity (like walking or stretching) can help memory and thinking in middle-aged and older adults. People with normal thinking, mild memory problems, or Parkinson's disease may join if they aren't already very active.
This study follows adults 40+ to better understand and track changes in memory and thinking as people age. It groups people with normal thinking, subjective complaints, mild cognitive impairment, early Alzheimer’s, and vascular (blood vessel) related brain changes to find what predicts progression.
This study looks at how brain activity relates to thinking problems and whether a cognitive (thinking) assessment and rehab approach can help adults with memory or thinking changes. You may be asked to take thinking tests and complete study activities during rehab.
This trial tests a program to help maintain or improve memory and thinking skills in older adults. You may join if you are 60-89, speak English, and live at home or in an assisted-living facility.
