Summary

This study investigates the feasibility of a cognitive strategy training intervention for people with Parkinson disease (PD). We plan to recruit 8 non-demented PD participants to complete 6 weekly treatment sessions and Pre- and Post-testing (8 sessions total, entire study duration per participant = 8 weeks). We will measure participant responsiveness and the overall efficiency of the intervention process.

Conditions

  • Parkinson Disease

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

Cognitive strategy training

The intervention teaches strategies in a way that promotes generalization and enhances daily function . It includes four core elements known to enhance learning transfer: (1) self-generation of broadly applicable strategies, (2) practice across multiple contexts and activities, (3) emphasis on metacognition, and (4) use of meaningful everyday activities.
