CCT Trial Summary

This trial will look at how computer training can boost mental abilities.

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.Check my eligibility

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.See study design

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.
