What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Changes in Executive Function
Time Frame: Baseline, 16 weeks
Changes in executive function composite score measured by the NIH Toolbox Cognition Module
Baseline, 16 weeks

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Changes in Nutritional Status
Time Frame: Baseline, 16 weeks.
Nutritional status will be assessed by the Nutritionist Pro (Axxya Systems, Redmond, WA), a nutrition analysis software that can be used for diet 24 hour recalls. Participants will be asked to recall food intake for one weekday and one weekend day.
Baseline, 16 weeks.
Changes in Sleep Quality as measured by the Pittsburg Sleep Quality Index
Time Frame: Baseline, 16 weeks.
The Pittsburg Sleep Quality Index has seven component scores that are added to yield one global score, with a range of 0-21 points, "0" indicating no difficulty and "21" indicating severe difficulties in all areas.
Baseline, 16 weeks.
