The objectives of the currently proposed randomized clinical trial are to (1) apply a treatment protocol for Processing Speed and Learning and memory impairments, well-validated in other neurological populations, to individuals with SCI with objectively observable deficits in these areas and document efficacy on standard neuropsychological testing; (2) assess the effectiveness of the interventions in persons with SCI utilizing global measures of everyday life; (3) evaluate the long-term benefit of treatment. Prior to enrollment in the study protocol, all potential subjects will undergo a 2-part screening: (1) an initial screening examination via telephone during which basic information will be gathered and (2) a detailed, in-person screening that will be completed on if the subject passes the initial screen. Individuals must meet full screening criteria to be eligible for participation.
