Abstract

Computerized cognitive training is a very flexible intervention. Patients can do the exercise anytime they want and any place they want. The training software can adapt to the patient’s current ability in a statistically optimal way, even if that ability fluctuates. Being automated means that it can be deployed on a very large scale at low cost.
