About the Study
NOTE: This study is no longer recruiting people.
This study will examine how well a computer-based training helps breast cancer survivors with thinking and memory problems caused by cancer.
What the Study Involves
NOTE: This study is no longer recruiting people.
People will be randomly placed in one of two computerized cognitive training groups. This will require a commitment of completing up to 40 hours of training over a ten-week period (average of 4 hours per week). In addition, we will ask you to complete questionnaires and complete a phone assessment of your thinking and memory skills before, immediately after the intervention at 12, 24, and 36 weeks after joining the study.
