I was wondering if there have been any case studies on people that do crossword puzzles.

I guess I really wanted to know if the studies have been done on people that already have cognitive problems.

Anytime you learn anything new you form synaptic connections. The brain changes as a result of experience and having more synaptic connections protects against Alzheimer's. I listed a Web MD article that summarizes studies on the subject--including doing crossword puzzles.

I've gone through DBT group therapy for anxiety. And they told me that those types of activities definitely help! I was told to get any type of word/number games like Sudoku or crosswords. I was also told to pick up the old fashioned game "Pick-up Sticks". These games are suppose to add in neural connections, focus and distract from anxiety-causing issues, and be physically soothing.
Best of luck!!
