Abstract
Statistically significant large positive effects were observed for participant-rated goal attainment at 3 months (d = 0.97).
- Participants receiving reported improvements in achieving personal goals compared to those receiving usual treatment.
- Informant ratings also supported these findings, indicating a corroboration of participant-reported improvements.
- The positive effects on goal attainment were maintained at the 9-month follow-up.
- Improvements were specifically related to the goals that were targeted during the cognitive rehabilitation sessions.
- No significant differences were found in secondary outcomes, such as quality of life and mood.
