Cognitive Reserve and Training in Older Veterans With Traumatic Brain Injury: Study 2
The purpose of this study is to conduct a pilot trial investigating cognitive training in older Veterans with a history of traumatic brain injury (TBI) to assess training effects, acceptability of training to participants, and to explore whether other factors influence training effects.

Detaljeret beskrivelse
A study of older Veterans (60-85 years old) who have 1) a history of repetitive mild TBI or at least one moderate TBI and 2) subjective cognitive complaints.
Participants will be randomized to one of three conditions for 4 weeks: Project:Evolution (EVO) multitask video game, EVO words video game, or an assessment only control condition.
Participants will complete assessment visits at baseline, post-intervention (1 month after baseline), and 3 months post-intervention (4 months after baseline).
