      <i_freetext>Intervention 1: Materials and Methods: The research units of this quasi experimental study were 41 elderly people living in the nursing home of Sabzevar mothers. The purposeful sampling was used to select nursing homes and available sampling method for selection of research units. The post-selection units were placed in 6 groups of 6-6 individuals. Each group was randomly assigned to control group (3 groups) or group memorization (3 groups).&#13;
The group memorandum was held weekly for one hour for 8 weeks. To eliminate the effects of the group, the discussion group was held every week for a weekly session for an 8-week week for the control group. Loneliness was measured using the UCLA questionnaire and Oxford Hearing Ability Questionnaire OHQ in two steps before and immediately after the intervention. SPSS software version 16 and descriptive and inferential statistics were used to analyze the data.
