| Abstract. This paper presents an experimental study to assess the capabilities of older adults to interact with multi-touch surfaces. The study involved 100 elderly people between 61?92 years old. We selected two different elderly centres in Madrid, with different characteristics in terms of income level. The ?Gesture Games? tool was used because it allows experimenting with the seven more used multi-touch gestures: Tap, Double tap, Long press, Drag, Scale up, Scale down and One-finger rotation. The analysis of the data showed that older adults have total capacity to execute these seven tasks. Some of the tasks, such as ?scale down? and ?scale up? were found easier for them, while other tasks, such as ?double tap? were more difficult. RELACION CON LA TESIS DOCTORAL: Esta investigaciòn permitiò descartar la primera hipòtesis de hacer una guìa para personas con Deficiencia cognitiva en la que se incluya los dos grupos principales que serìan : Adultos Mayores y personas con Syndrome de Down. Al hacer este analisis se encontraron grandes difrencias en las destresas que cada grupo tiene para manejar los dispositivos mòviles por lo que se descarta la hipòtesis de manejar los dos grupos por igual, con esta base me enfoquè en personas con syndrome de Down donde encontrè mayor èxito en la ejecuciòn de las tareas planteadas.
