In this investigation, we present a study carried out on 38 elderly subjects aged 65 with the first signs of senile dementia, to whom the BAPNE method was applied in order to observe their cognitive stimulation. The study was focussed on activities carried out to stimulate executive functions and attention. The pre- and post-tests (eNB and Neglect) have shown evidence of a noticeable improvement in executive functions and changes due to decreased levels of the hormone cortisol. The state of flow of the participants was positive: the DFS-2 and FSS-2 tests carried out confirm a flow of activity with a clear sense of time being lost during the performing of the proposed exercises.
