“…We observed this in our RCT, and it has also been reported in earlier studies of cognitive rehabilitation in other patient populations [87][88][89][90]. It has been suggested that patients may require a longer period of time to integrate learned strategies into their daily routine.…”

“…There were four RCT (Class I) studies of subjects with TBI (Kerner and Acker, 1985;Ryan and Ruff, 1988;Berg et al, 1991;Schmitter-Edgecombe et al, 1995), four class II studies (Freeman et al, 1992;Parente, 1994;Goldstein et al, 1996;Wilson et al, 1997), and 34 class III studies.…”

“…In patients with limited memory impairments, the prospects to improve their performance are better and therefore the use of internal memory strategies may be helpful. In the study of Berg et al, 7 patients with closed head-injury received either a strategy training or 18 hours of drill and practice tasks; a third group received no treatment (passive control group). The results showed that only the strategy training yielded a significant improvement on objective memory tests.…”

Objectives. Memory training in combination with practice in semantic structuring and word fluency has been shown to improve memory performance. This study investigated the efficacy of a working memory training combined with exercises in semantic structuring and word fluency and examined whether training effects generalize to other cognitive tasks. Methods. In this double-blind randomized control study, 36 patients with memory impairments following brain damage were allocated to either the experimental or the active control condition, with both groups receiving 9 hours of therapy. The experimental group received a computer-based working memory training and exercises in word fluency and semantic structuring. The control group received the standard memory therapy provided in the rehabilitation center. Patients were tested on a neuropsychological test battery before and after therapy, resulting in composite scores for working memory; immediate, delayed, and prospective memory; word fluency; and attention. Results. The experimental group improved significantly in working memory and word fluency. The training effects also generalized to prospective memory tasks. No specific effect on episodic memory could be demonstrated. Conclusion. Combined treatment of working memory training with exercises in semantic structuring is an effective method for cognitive rehabilitation of organic memory impairment.
