Summary

(Neuro)Cognitive remediation (CR) is an intervention for people experiencing cognitive impairments that interfere with their daily functioning. Cognition refers to a person's ability to perceive, process, manipulate and respond to information. Attention, memory, abstract reasoning, and processing speed are all examples of cognitive skills. By focusing on improving these underlying skills, the overall aim of cognitive remediation is to improve the participant's daily satisfaction and success. CR can be achieved through teaching compensatory strategies, restoration of cognition through drill and practice and by utilizing regulative metacognitive strategies. Acquired skills and strategies are then 'bridged' or applied to daily functioning with the assistance of the clinician.

This pilot study intends to assess the impacts of a CR program on a population of Military Veterans, police officers, and retirees within the Nova Scotia Operational Stress Injury Clinic (NSOSIC). Researchers believe this program will improve cognitive functioning and that participants will perceive that the program was beneficial.

(Neuro)Cognitive Remediation

(Neuro)Cognitive remediation is an intervention for people experiencing cognitive impairments that interfere with their daily functioning. Attention, memory, abstract reasoning, and processing speed are all examples of cognitive skills. By focusing on improving these underlying skills, the overall aim of cognitive remediation is to improve the client's daily satisfaction and success. Although cognitive remediation programs and strategies have been studied with other populations, it has not been sufficiently evaluated from a mental health trans-diagnostic perspective for military Veterans and police officers and retirees who this research will study.
