Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| The primary outcomes of both studies are the improvements on academic achievement and neurocognitive functions. In study I the baseline score is compared with the score direct after the training and 6 months after the training. Within the Cogmed computer training it is possible to use measures from diverse tasks (raw and standardized data), next to data at the start/ending of the training and the so called improved-index. In study II is an extra measure after 12 months, only if the child respond sufficiently to the intervention developed by the Bascule. If the child doesn*t respond sufficiently to the intervention developed by the Bascule, it will get an extra measure after the Cogmed intervention. | — |
