Summary

The investigators conducted a feasibility study of a virtually-delivered adaptation of an ecologically oriented neurorehabilitation of memory (EON-Mem) in improving memory for healthy older adults. The primary purposes of this study included determining the feasibility of conducting EON-Mem virtually with older adults and whether a randomized control trial using EON-Mem in older adults is of value.

Detailed description

Twenty-five older adults aged 55 years and older were recruited for participation in the EON-Mem training program adapted and administered virtually. Measures of emotional functioning and cognitive functioning were administered before and following the intervention. Participants attended one virtual treatment session per week for a total of six weeks with daily homework assignments. A priori, feasibility was set at an 80% completion rate. To address questions regarding feasibility, the investigators calculated descriptive statistics on sample information.
