of Attention and Memory in intervention line. Assessments conducted before and
after the intervention, showed the improvement of Attention and Memory after the evaluation
of interventions respectively.
Conclusion : The results of this study are expected to be clinically useful. Follow-up studies on
smart phone application intervention are needed for more targeted sampling study and conducted
over a long period of time.
