Summary
To investigate factors that predict cognitive enhancement following engagement in an intensive Computerized Cognitive Training Protocol.
Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion Criteria:
* Patient of the Mass General Brigham Health System with primary attention and executive functioning difficulties and/or a diagnosis of mild cognitive disorder or mild neurocognitive disorder (non-amnestic profile), due to an acquired brain injury (ABI) sustained at least 12 months prior to study contact.
* Ages 25-65 years old
* Proficiency in English
* Willing and able to complete all study-related activities for 12 months, including travel to Brigham and Women's Hospital (Boston) for four in-person assessment visits and two serum and saliva sample collections.
* Access to a computer with webcam and stable internet.
* A reliable study informant who can complete one questionnaire about participant's cognition/daily functioning, at four time points.
Exclusion Criteria:
* History of alcohol or substance abuse, or dependence, within the past 2 years, as per DSM-5 criteria.
* High likelihood of an underlying progressive neurodegenerative disorder.
* Evidence of moderate to severe cognitive disorder, based on a score of 21 or less on the Mini-Mental Status Examination (MMSE) (Tombaugh \& McIntyre, 1992).
* Patient Health Questionnaire (PHQ)-9 (Kroenke et al., 2010) Score ≥ 19, unless deemed by treating provider not to have active depression (e.g., adjustment disorder, grief reaction).
* Active psychotic symptoms.
* Severe sensory losses such that participants would unlikely be able to participate in the study training, even with substantial accommodations (self-report of extreme difficulty reading ordinary newspaper print or a performance-tested corrected vision test score of worse than 20/30).
* Communication difficulties that prevent the participant from effectively participating in this highly interactive study protocol (based on interviewer's rating of a person's ability to be understood and to understand others).
* Current participation in a pharmacological, or other interventional research trial.
* Life expectancy of \< 2 years.
