Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

Computer-Based Cognitive Enhancement Training Program

Participants in the cognitive enhancement training program will receive feedback on their cognitive strengths and weaknesses based on the outcomes of the baseline assessment. The training component will be comprised of 150 computer-based exercises that focus on improving memory, attention, and organizational skills. Participants will attend two weekly meetings: one will focus on providing feedback regarding goal-setting and problem-solving, and the other will focus on improving verbal skills and social information processing.

Work Therapy Program

Participants in the work therapy program will attend two non-cognitive discussion groups per week.
