Summary
This trial tests a computer-based training program to help people with cognitive decline improve their memory and thinking skills by doing mental exercises regularly.
Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults aged 25-65 with attention and executive functioning issues or mild cognitive disorders from brain injuries at least a year old. Participants must speak English, be able to visit Brigham and Women's Hospital in Boston for assessments, have internet access, and provide an informant to report on their daily functioning.
What is being tested?
The study examines how well people with cognitive impairments due to brain injury can improve after doing intensive computerized cognitive training. It looks at what factors make the training more effective over a period of 12 months.
What are the potential side effects?
Since this trial involves non-invasive computerized cognitive exercises, there are no direct physical side effects like you'd expect from medication. However, participants may experience mental fatigue or frustration.

Other Research
Common treatments for Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI), such as Computerized Cognitive Training Protocols, work by engaging participants in structured, computer-based exercises aimed at improving cognitive functions. These interventions enhance neuroplasticity, improve working memory, attention, and executive functions, and may delay the progression to dementia.
For MCI patients, these treatments are crucial as they help maintain cognitive abilities, improve daily functioning, and enhance overall quality of life.
