abstract
The study focused on effects of the computer training programme HAPPYneuron Brain Jogging on the improvements in cognitive functions (memory and attention) training of the stroke patients and of those who have undergone traumatic brain injury. We have examined 44 patients (28 men, 16 women – 22 stroke patients, 22 TBI; average age 43 years). The participants were divided into an experimental group (N = 28) and a control group (N = 16). The aim of our study was to compare results in cognitive tests (AVLT, WAIS-III subtest Numbers, LGT3 subtest Objects, TMT (A, B), Numerical Square, Digit symbol, Verbal Fluency) and in self-rating scales (Cognitive Failures Questionnaire, Schwartz Outcomes Scale, Dysexecutive Questionnaire) before and after two months of intense training. The training was held individually at home and consisted of 400 Memory and attention Games to the extent of 24 hours. The data processed via Wilcoxon paired test (p = 0.05) showed a significant improvement in five of thirteen test subscores and in two self-rating scales.
