Cognitive rehabilitation interventions such as Goal Management Training (GMT) and the Implementation Intentions strategy have been developed with the aim of improving prospective memory (PM) in everyday life. The aim of this study was to provide "proof of concept" for an experimental paradigm that could be used to evaluate the effects of Goal Management Implementation Intentions training (GMTii) derived from the principles of GMT and Implementation Intentions. Thirty adults were randomised to either GMTii or a control training condition. A computerised PM task that involved an ongoing task into which a PM task was embedded was completed pre-training and post-training. In addition, a novel yet similar PM task was completed post-training to assess generalisability of any effect. The two groups had similar overall performance pre-training. Post-training, the GMTii group demonstrated significantly better performance on the familiar computerised PM task showing less performance decay over time compared to the control group. The GMTii group also showed better performance on the novel task. The results demonstrated that brief GMTii significantly improved PM performance compared to control training and that computerised PM tasks were sensitive to this effect. The results suggest that this paradigm could be used to study the effects of metacognitive rehabilitation interventions.
诸如目标管理训练(GMT)和执行意图策略等认知康复干预措施的开发旨在改善日常生活中的前瞻性记忆(PM)。本研究的目的是为一种实验范式提供“概念验证”,该范式可用于评估源自GMT和执行意图原则的目标管理执行意图训练(GMTii)的效果。30名成年人被随机分配到GMTii组或对照训练组。在训练前和训练后完成一项计算机化的PM任务,该任务涉及一个正在进行的任务,其中嵌入了一个PM任务。此外,在训练后完成一项新颖但类似的PM任务,以评估任何效果的普遍性。两组在训练前的总体表现相似。训练后,GMTii组在熟悉的计算机化PM任务上表现明显更好,与对照组相比,随着时间的推移表现下降更少。GMTii组在新任务上也表现更好。结果表明,与对照训练相比,简短的GMTii显著提高了PM表现,并且计算机化的PM任务对这种效果很敏感。结果表明,这种范式可用于研究元认知康复干预的效果。
