LearningRx Cognitive Training for Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI): A Multiple Baseline Study Across Cases

The purpose of this investigation is to conduct a series of case studies on the impact of LearningRx cognitive training on cognitive skills, brain structure, and daily functioning for participants with Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI).

Study Overview

Status

Active, not recruiting

Detailed Description

Using a multiple baseline design across cases with start point randomization, the proposed study will examine the outcomes from LearningRx one-on-one cognitive training across domains on standardized measures used to monitor treatment effectiveness for TBI.

Design Details

  • Primary Purpose: Treatment
  • Allocation: N/A
  • Interventional Model: Single Group Assignment
  • Masking: None (Open Label)

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Experimental: LearningRx cognitive training
The intervention is a 60-hour, clinician-delivered cognitive training program.
A clinician will deliver three 90-minute cognitive training sessions per week for 14 weeks. There are 16 different categories of leveled training procedures sequenced in intensity and difficulty for a total of 530 training tasks.
