Enhancing Cognitive Abilities With Comprehensive Training

Cognitive Abilities Clinical Trial

Official title: Enhancing Cognitive Abilities With Comprehensive Training: A Large, Online, Randomized, Active-Controlled Trial

Status Completed

Clinical Trial Summary

The purpose of this study is to measure the efficacy of an online cognitive training program against an active control condition in a large, randomized trial.

Clinical Trial Description

The present study aims to evaluate a targeted, progressively challenging, online cognitive training program comprised of 49 distinct exercises targeting a variety of cognitive capacities. The cognitive training program will be compared to a plausibly beneficial active control condition in which participants completed online crossword puzzles.

The investigators hypothesize that the cognitive training will show greater transfer to a range of underlying cognitive abilities than the active control, as measured by a broad battery of neuropsychological assessments and participant-reported outcomes. ;
