Cognitive Remediation in Forensic Mental Health Care

Anxiety | Aggression | Schizophrenia | Substance Use Disorders | Violence | Depression |...

Forensic patients often display cognitive deficits, particularly in the domain of executive functions, that represent a challenge to forensic rehabilitation.

One empirically-validated method to train executive functions is cognitive remediation, which consists of cognitive exercises combined with coaching.

This trial investigates whether cognitive remediation can improve cognitive, functional, and clinical outcomes in forensic inpatients.
