Subjective cognitive decline and cognitive leisure activity engagement in older adults: A mixed-methods study

Emine Akbayrak, Philip A Powell, Sarah Barnes

Abstract Background and Objectives Subjective cognitive decline (SCD), self-perceived worsening in cognitive abilities without objective impairment, is an early marker of dementia linked to poorer mental health and reduced quality of life. Cognitive leisure activities (CLA) are low-cost, accessible behaviours that support cognitive functioning and well-being. However, evidence remains limited regarding the directionality, mechanisms, and domain-specific nature of the SCD–CLA relationship. This study provides novel …
