Study Summary

Individuals aged 55 and older may experience negative effects of cognitive decline. The proposed research seeks to evaluate the benefits of different types of interventions: reasoning training following transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) and reasoning training following sham transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) on frontal- lobe mediated cognitive measures of executive control in adults with memory complaints, in the absence of dementia.

Primary Outcome

To examine short-term and long-term effects of treatment on cognition and real-life outcomes. The participant will undergo neuropsychological testing at baseline, post-training (4 weeks), as well as 3-months post-training. Scores on the scale range from 0 to 16 on the California Verbal Learning Task. Higher the values are better their memory.

Interventions
