About our research study:
Researchers are developing an innovative cognitive training program designed to improve cognition and reduce symptoms associated with mood, anxiety, and traumatic stress disorders. Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), anxiety disorders, and mood disorders are serious conditions that affect peoples' lives dramatically. People with these conditions are commonly plagued by difficulty controlling distressing personal thoughts and memories, collectively referred to as repetitive negative thinking symptoms. Researchers hope their findings will help to determine the optimal dose of a new cognitive training program. This program is designed to reduce repetitive negative thinking in mood, anxiety, and traumatic stress disorders. Your participation in this study may lead to improved mood and brain functioning. |
Additional Information
The long-term goal advanced by this project is to develop effective, mechanistic cognitive
training programs that can improve cognition and reduce symptoms associated with mood,
anxiety, and traumatic stress disorders. The objectives of this proposal are first to determine the
optimal dose of a cognitive training program designed to improve cognition in this
population using behavioral and neural outcomes.
