Sponsor's own description
This study investigates the utility of Goal Management Training (GMT) in patients with post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), in order to determine if this treatment is effective in improving cognitive function in patients with frontal-temporally mediated brain dysfunction. Specifically, the primary aim of this study is to examine whether a standardized 9-week program of GMT results in durable improvements in cognitive functioning relative to a wait-list control group. A secondary aim will be to determine whether participation in the GMT group is associated with long-term functional improvements. It is hypothesized that at post-treatment, participants with PTSD assigned to the GMT groups will show greater improvement in neuropsychological test performance and greater functional improvement compared to those in the wait-list group; these gains are expected to be maintained at 3 month follow-up.
