<![CDATA[Abstrak  Populasi lansia saat ini mengalami peningkatan dan diharapkan kualitas hidupnya pun harus tetap baik. Salah satunya dengan memelihara fungsi kognitif melalui senam Gerak Latih Otak (GLO). Tujuan penelitian adalah melihat pengaruh senam GLO terhadap fungsi kognitif lansia. Metode penelitian menggunakan kuasi eksperimen tanpa kontrol dengan intervensi senam GLO 30 menit per sesi, tiga kali seminggu selama satu bulan. Fungsi kognitif dinilai dengan Mini Mental State Examination (MMSE). Jumlah sampel sebanyak 39 lansia. Uji statistik menggunakan paired t test. Hasil uji menunjukkan ada perbedaan rata-rata fungsi kognitif setelah intervensi dengan mean MMSE = 22,95 (SD = 1,413) menjadi 27,95 dengan SD = 1,297 (p value = 0,000). Senam GLO mampu meningkatkan fungsi kognitif lansia sehingga diharapkan menjadi salah satu latihan fisik yang dapat dilakukan di panti. Kata Kunci : fungsi kognitif, kualitas hidup lansia, senam GLO   Abstract The population of the elderly is currently increasing and it is expected that the quality of life must also be good.
