Title: Cognitive Dysfunction and impact on daily/workplace functioning
Summary:
The brain has a remarkable ability to repair itself, a phenomenon known as plasticity
Cognitive deficits (Speed, Memory, Attention, Reasoning, Tact, Synthesis) are related to altered brain plasticity
Cognitive deficits and the brain changes may be reversible with neuroplasticity based cognitive remediation, have durable real-world benefits
Cognitive remediation works best when it is Progressive, Repetitive, Individualized, Strategic and includes a Motivational component.
Deficits in brain plasticity may set in early. Early intervention may have large positive implications for outcome
