Arms and Interventions

Arm	Intervention/Treatment
Case group (mild cognitive impairment) geriatric population with mild cognitive impairment	Other: reaction time test; Reaction time tests consist of 3 sub-parameters as simple reaction time, selective reaction time and distinctive reaction time. Participants will do these tests on the computer.; Other: Physical fitness test; The physical fitness test will be evaluated with the senior fitness test used for geriatrics and the 8 meter walking speed test.
Control Group (healthy elderly) healthy older adults without cognitive impairment	Other: reaction time test; Reaction time tests consist of 3 sub-parameters as simple reaction time, selective reaction time and distinctive reaction time. Participants will do these tests on the computer.; Other: Physical fitness test; The physical fitness test will be evaluated with the senior fitness test used for geriatrics and the 8 meter walking speed test.

Outcome Measures

   reaction time

Secondary Outcome Measures

1. physical fitness [Physical fitness tests are expected to take an average of 20 minutes.]

   physical capacity of the person
