3Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Active Control
Group I: Individual + Computer BExperimental Treatment2 Interventions
Daily activities involve playing an alternative set of computer games (computer cognitive training B (CCB)), and two (2) 90 minute individual training sessions interacting one-on-one with a trainer in a variety of cognitive tasks including attention, memory, and comprehension of information.
Group II: Individual + Computer AActive Control2 Interventions
Daily activities involve playing one hour of computer games (e.g., hangman, boggle, word scramble, chess; computer cognitive training A (CCA)), and two (2) 90 minute individual training sessions interacting one-on-one with a trainer in a variety of cognitive tasks including attention, memory, and comprehension of information.
Group III: Group + Computer BActive Control2 Interventions
Daily activities involve group and individual cognitive therapy discussions on health, nutrition, and other topics and computer cognitive training B (CCB).
