Cognitive Skills Training for Homeless Youth
Cognitive Skills Training to Improve Vocational Outcome in Homeless Youth
연구 개요
상태
상세 설명
The aim of this research is to conduct a controlled study of cognitive remediation, to provide feasibility data on adapting an established empirically-based cognitive intervention for homeless youth to help them attain vocational goals. The ultimate purpose is that youth will improve in cognitive functioning and have better functional outcomes including jobs to sustain independent living.
The results of this study will inform a larger trial on the efficacy of cognitive remediation in homeless youth to improve cognition and vocational outcomes. Hypotheses are that, compared to those in an active control group receiving computerized work-skills training, individuals who receive cognitive remediation will show greater cognitive benefits on proximal measures of neurocognition and evidence better vocational outcome as defined by greater number of hours worked. This study will address the service gap in the use of integrated psychosocial interventions for homeless populations as the first investigation of cognitive remediation in homeless youth.

활성 비교기: Computer skills training
26 sessions conducted 2-3 times a week to train in computer skills related to the workforce.
|
Participants utilize an interactive software program that delivers tutorials, lessons, and practice sessions to develop computer skills for office based employment.
During the learning activities, the clinician offers coaching and assistance in setting up computerized training exercises as needed.

실험적: Cognitive Remediation
26 sessions conducted 2-3 times a week of cognitive remediation
|
Neuropsychological Educational Approach to Remediation (NEAR) is an evidence based, manualized cognitive remediation program that targets cognitive deficits (eg memory, processing speed, executive functioning, working memory and attention) with the intent of improving daily functioning.NEAR is conducted in a small group setting, allowing for supportive social interaction while participants work at their own computer station on engaging computerized activities that are selected to address their unique profile of cognitive deficits.
Then, as a group they discuss how their respective cognitive activities will help them achieve their vocational goals.
