It has been proposed that engagement in purposeful complex mental stimulation provides protection against dementia. The Tasmanian Healthy Brain Project (THBP) is a unique, large-scale prospective trial that examines whether university-level study in older adult population reduces ageing-related cognitive decline and risk of dementia. This project will also examine how an individual’s genetic profile may influence the potential benefits of complex mental stimulation as well as risk of dementia.

有人提出，参与有目的的复杂精神刺激可以预防痴呆症。塔斯马尼亚健康大脑项目（THBP）是一项独特的、大规模的前瞻性试验，旨在研究大学水平的老年人研究是否能降低与年龄相关的认知能力下降和痴呆症的风险。该项目还将研究个体的遗传特征如何影响复杂精神刺激的潜在益处以及患痴呆症的风险。
