Objectives: The aim of this experimental study was to assess the cognitive activity and satisfaction with life of older adults in nursing home before and after ceramic painting. Methods: The sample of the survey consisted of 15 older adults each in the intervention and control groups. Data for the study were collected using a questionnaire form developed to determine the sociodemographic characteristics of the older adults, the Mini-Mental State Examination, and the Life Satisfaction Scale. Results: There was a statistically significant increase in the mean Mini-Mental State Examination score of the intervention group compared with the control group at the end of ceramic painting (P < .05). The intervention group had increased average Life Satisfaction Scale scores in the posttest compared with the control group, although the difference was not statistically significant. Conclusions: The results showed that art therapy with ceramic painting was a positive effect on the cognitive levels and quality of life of older adults.
