Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The proposed study is designed to evaluate the effect of at-home executive function training on cognition and mobility in older adults with age-related hearing loss (ARHL), older adults with normal hearing, and middle-aged adults.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Executive function (EF) training

12 weeks of at-home EF training on a computer or iPad

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Executive function (EF) training

Intervention Type BEHAVIORAL

EF training will involve at-home computer- or tablet based training to improve several EF processes, including divided attention, response inhibition, switching, and working memory updating. Training session duration = 30 min x 3 session/week.

Wait-list control

This will be a comparator arm with no cognitive training. Participants will be given access to the same training program following the conclusion of the study, but no further assessment is planned.

Group Type NO_INTERVENTION

No interventions assigned to this group
