The purpose of the present study was determination of effects of 8 weeks (8 sessions) group reminiscence on depression of mild cognitive impaired elders of Iran’s “Jahandidegan-e-Shiraz” institute. Hence, 72 persons (48 females and 24 males) among 60-84 years old mild cognitive impaired elders were purposefully chosen as the subjects, and were randomly divided to 3 teams of group reminiscence, group intervention and without intervention, with consideration of equal proportions of males and females. Depression questionnaires were filled by the subjects, before and after the intervention. The intervention was in a manner that the group reminiscence team participated in 8 group reminiscence sessions (1 weekly 90 min session for 8 weeks). Meetings of the group intervention team were similar to the group reminiscence one, except the subjects of group intervention team only talk together as a group. The third team didn’t receive any intervention. In order to investigate and compare variations of under study variable, statistical methods of independent one-way variance analysis test, Kruskal-Wallis test, T paired test and K-squared test were utilized. Depression decreased significantly, among the two teams of group reminiscence and group intervention (P 0.05). Also, the variation among the group reminiscence team was significantly more than its increment in the without intervention one (P 0.05). This variation among group intervention team was insignificantly more than its change in the without intervention group (P>0.05). It’s appeared, in order to reduce depression, group community and especially group reminiscence could be noticed by mild cognitive impaired elders. Though, the requirement of further investigations is sensed.
