Brief Summary:
Some of the most common and disabling consequences of brain injury are deficits in cognition, such as difficulty with sustained attention, memory, organization, and goal management. The long-term goal of this research program is to develop and test novel neuroscience-based cognitive interventions for improving attentional regulation and related "executive function" brain processes involved in goal-directed behavior.
Detailed Description:
Brain injury often results in a disruption of attention regulation processes, which reduces the efficiency and effectiveness of cognitive functions including learning, memory, problem-solving and goal management, leading to significant functional disability. More intervention options are needed.
We set out to test different possible interventions. Individuals with traumatic brain injury (TBI) and chronic executive control dysfunction participate in interventions, with pre- and post-intervention measurements of cognitive functioning. Training in Goal-oriented attentional self-regulation (GOALS) was administered in comparison to Brain Health Education (EDU).
GOALS is designed to train attention regulation skills along with meta-cognitive strategies for goal management, with a emphasis on application to participant-selected projects. This is a group-based intervention.
Brain Health Education is designed to increase knowledge and understanding of key factors that affect brain functioning. This is a group-based intervention matched to the GOALS intervention.
