This presentation will focus on the objective of a psychological study that examines the role of COVID-19 on executive functions in a geriatric population. Thus, we compare the executive performance of this population in an institutionalized context. Two groups will be evaluated, one with a previous history of COVID-19 infection and the other that has not been infected. In short, we reveal how the executive functions of elderly people who have had COVID-19 are more compromised compared to the control group (not infected).
