“…A different method is applied for the treatment of memory in AD patients during errorless learning because some previous studies have suggested that cognitive rehabilitation approaches may have positive effects on memory functioning during the earlystages of AD (Backman and Dixon, 1992;Backman, 1996;Clare et al, 1999Clare et al, , 2000Clare et al, , 2001Clare et al, , 2002Clare et al, , 2003aClare et al, , 2009). This technique employs learning conditions in which patients are prevented from making errors and is based on various techniques (e.g., vanishing cues and spaced retrieval) that have been previously described for MCI studies.…”

Non-pharmacological intervention of memory difficulties in healthy older adults, as well as those with brain damage and neurodegenerative disorders, has gained much attention in recent years. The two main reasons that explain this growing interest in memory rehabilitation are the limited efficacy of current drug therapies and the plasticity of the human central nervous and the discovery that during aging, the connections in the brain are not fixed but retain the capacity to change with learning. Moreover, several studies have reported enhanced cognitive performance in patients with neurological disease, following non-invasive brain stimulation [i.e., repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation and transcranial direct current stimulation to specific cortical areas]. The present review provides an overview of memory rehabilitation in individuals with mild cognitive impairment and in patients with Alzheimer's disease with particular regard to cognitive rehabilitation interventions focused on memory and non-invasive brain stimulation. Reviewed data suggest that in patients with memory deficits, memory intervention therapy could lead to performance improvements in memory, nevertheless further studies need to be conducted in order to establish the real value of this approach.

“…The rationale for cognitive training in AD is based on evidence regarding the neuropsychology and neuroanatomy of memory impairments in AD and the capacity of the patients with AD to acquire new knowledge (Clare et al, 2001;Cavallo et al, 2013a;Cavallo et al, 2016). It is relevant to note that converging evidence clearly indicates that some cognitive subsystems (e.g.…”

“…However, Evans, Wilson, Schuri, Andrade, Baddeley, Bruna, Canavan, Della Sala, Green, Laaksonen, Lorenzi, & Taussik (2000) had mixed results: EL was successful for relearning names but not for route learning or putting information into an electronic aid. Studies by Clare, Wilson, Breen & Hodges (1999), Clare, Wilson, Carter, Gosses, Breen & Hodges (2000) Clare, Wilson, Carter, Hodges & Adams (2001), Clare, Wilson, Carter, Roth and Hodges (2002) and Clare, Wilson, Carter and Hodges (2003) have found that errorless learning can be useful for retraining facename associations, personal information and use of memory aids for people with dementia. These positive effects of errorless learning have been attributed to the interference of errors in learning when explicit memory is impaired Page et al, 2006).…”
