Decreased ability in cognitive functions leads to impaired performance in daily activities of judgment, attention, and awareness. Therefore, this study investigates different cognitive therapies on cognition in elderly people with Alzheimer's disease.

Findings: In search of 1145 articles in Pubmed database, 615 articles in Science Directory database were obtained. 1122 articles were excluded after the abstract study and finally 12 articles that matched the research objectives were selected and reported.
Conclusion: Applying a variety of cognitive exercises can prevent more serious cognitive impairments in high risk individuals, especially the elderly, and increase their executive function. Therefore, practitioners are more familiar with and practicing these exercises.
