Description
Clarisse Friedlaender and co-authors run a trial of adult schooling in late life to lift planning skills in Brazil, in a 2025 conference paper. Schooling is a known factor that can cut dementia risk. The program, called PROAME, targets adults with very low schooling in groups at high risk.
The team screened 130 adults and took in 108, split by home area into a class group and a control group. Thinking tests came at the start and after six months, covering memory, speech, and planning. The adults had a mean of just over two years of past schooling. Most were women. A joint score summed three planning tasks. The team asked whether the classes lifted that score, and who gained most.
