The population of study was included all active and inactive ELDERly nursing home residents in the 6th district of Tehran that 60 active and 60 inactive ELDERly with voluntary sampling method were selected. The research instruments were Sharkey Physical ACTIVITY Index and Mini Mental State Examination. Statistical analysis conducted by independent t test and SPSS-22.Results: The mean (SD) of the COGNITIVE FUNCTION score in two groups of active and inactive ELDERly was respectively 21.7 (3), 10.2 (1.8) (P<0.001) and orientation memory 12.4 (2.3), 10.9 (2.2) (P<0.001), attention and focus 3.4 (1.4), 2.9 (1.1) (P=0.05), assessment of language ability 5.9 (1.8), 4.6 (1.7) (P<0.001) and visual-spatial abilities 0.8 (0.4), 0.6 (0.5) (P=0.004).Conclusion: The study showed that physical ACTIVITY was effective in COGNITIVE FUNCTION of ELDERly.
