Summary

This study is to find out if the Attention Processing Training program is a potential treatment for brain fog symptoms, reported by people with Long-Covid. Also investigating the feasibility of completing this program virtually.

Detailed description

The goal of this project is to test the feasibility, acceptability and efficacy of an attention training intervention (Attention Process Training; APT-3) as a potential treatment for brain fog symptoms experienced by people with Long-Covid. There already is good empirical evidence to support the idea that the APT-3 treatment is feasible and effective in improving attention in people with acquired brain injuries, but information about its efficacy and acceptability in people with Long-Covid brain fog is lacking.

Conditions

• Long Covid
