"Cognitus & Moi": a New Cognitive Remediation Tool for Children With Intellectual Deficiency With Behavioral Disorders

Holders children with intellectual disabilities have great difficulty in adapting to social situations and relationships.Cognitive impairment associated with intellectual disability are important factors to understand their difficulties in processing social information. In the field of recognition of facial emotions in particular, basic cognitive processes such as visuospatial and attentional functions, are heavily involved.Cognitive remediation is a management tool widely used by practitioners to help patients who experience cognitive difficulties. Currently, no program can meet specific and validated the problems are children with intellectual disabilities manner in their daily functioning.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Aberrant Behavior Checklist scale
Time Frame: 6 months
Change in sub-score " hyperactivity / non compliance " (scale " Aberrant Behavior Checklist ") (completed by parents or the educational team). This measure is repeated at the end of the intervention to highlight the impact of the " Cognitus and Me " program, and 6 months later to investigate the possible long-lasting effects of the benefits.
