This randomized controlled trial aims to evaluate the effect of digital intelligence games on visual and cognitive performance in young individuals with intellectual disabilities. Participants aged 18-35 years receiving services from EÇADEM in Istanbul will be randomly assigned to either an intervention group receiving digital intelligence game training using the MentalUP application or a control group receiving routine services. Visual memory and cognitive performance will be assessed using the Benton Visual Retention Test and the Standardized Mini Mental Test at baseline, 3 months, 6 months, and 12 months. The study will investigate the short- and long-term effects of digital cognitive training on visual and cognitive functioning.
