Study Summary
This study investigates the effectiveness of computer-based cognitive training with or without transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) in improving the functioning of older individuals with HIV-related cognitive dysfunction.
Primary Outcome
Ability of the participant to attend to and use complex stimuli while making a motor response. The Coding subtest of the Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale, 4th ed. (WAIS-IV) asks that the person assessed insert small geometric drawings with pencil on paper according to a key at the top of the page. One figure corresponds to the numeral 1, another to 2, and so on. The persons is asked to work as quickly as they can, and given a specific period in which to complete the task. Raw scores are the num
Interventions
- BEHAVIORAL Computer-based Cognitive Training
- PROCEDURE Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation (tDCS)
- BEHAVIORAL Watching Educational Videos
