Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
Cognitive remediation therapy (CRT) emerges as a psychological intervention that target cognitive impairment. But, the use of computerized or papel an pencil procedures for remediation cognitive deficits remains controversial. Nonetheless, computer tasks offer a number of advantages compared to those of paper and pencil. The most noteworthy advantages are to enhance patient's motivation just because the sensory variety that the exercises presented or the possibility to provide immediate feedback. Furthermore, the possibility to present custom-tailored and adapted tasks taking into accounts the patients deficits and their evolution in the process of the psychological therapy is another important feature of computer-assisted cognitive remediation therapy.

Computer-assisted cognitive remediation therapy
Comparison of two groups:
The experimental group performs 48 sessions of computer exercices designed to remedy cognitive domains(attention, speed of processing, working memory,reasoning and problem solving) frequently affected in schizophrenia.
The intervention has a period 6 months , two sessions a week. All exercises provided a visual or verbal feedback to immediately terminate the execution.In addition to, the therapist after the sessions interactively explain the results and the strategies employed by the patient.
