Treatments Being Tested

BEHAVIORAL

Cognitive remediation program, with the PRESCO® software

The program runs for 16 weeks, with two sessions per week, one with a neuropsychologist. In the first 4 weeks, the patient will have weekly sessions at the center and complete the other session at home using the app provided for the study. For the next 8 weeks, sessions with the neuropsychologist will be every other week, with the other session at home. The neuropsychologist will track progress through the software history and follow up by phone if needed. The proposed program will be based on a software solution for cognitive rehabilitation, developed and validated for the treatment of attention and memory disorders and neurodegenerative, neurotraumatic and neuropsychiatric pathologies (PRESCO® software, marketed by HappyNeuron).

BEHAVIORAL

Control program, with the AUDITICO® software

Control program, with the same functional characteristics but without the targeted cognitive functions. For the control program (comparator), we will use a software solution from the same company, but dedicated to stimulating and training auditory functions (AUDITICO® software). The advantage of this solution is that, like PRESCO®, it offers training exercises that are not aimed at re-educating cognitive functions. These include, for example, sound identification and discrimination activities. This tool can also be used by anyone, and is accessible for follow-up by the practitioner. It also offers levels of increasing difficulty, making it stimulating for users.
