Goal-Oriented Attentional Self-Regulation Training Improves Executive Function and Complex Attention in Veterans With mTBI—Randomized-Control Study
GOALS training improved performance on neuropsychological and ecologically valid functional measures of complex attention and executive function, as well as emotional functioning in veterans with mTBI. Improving executive functions may also improve functioning in other domains such as emotional regulation and functional performance, making it particularly relevant for veterans with a history of mTBI and comorbid psychiatric symptoms.
