Effectiveness of the Combined Memory Training Program on Memory Skills and School Achievement of Children with Specific Learning Disorders: A Pilot Randomized Controlled Trial |
|
| چکیده انگلیسی مقاله |
Background: Children with specific learning disorders (SLD) suffer from some common cognitive deficits affecting their school achievement. The main goal of this study was to investigate the effect of the combined working memory training program (WMTP) with the Caillou program (the game-like features of computerized cognitive training programs) on memory as a cognitive function and academic achievement in the children with SLD. Material and Methods: In this pilot randomized controlled trial study, 30 children with SLD, aged 8-11 years, took part; they were randomly allocated to the intervention and control groups. The intervention group received twenty training sessions in a 10-week period, each lasting 30-45 minutes. The children in the control group only participated in the assessment sessions. The primary outcome was verbal working memory skills assessed by Digit span and letter-number sequencing sub-tests of the Wechsler intelligence scale for children-4th Edition (WISC-IV); be sides, the grades of science, literature and mathematics were collected as the secondary outcomes. Children were assessed 3 times: as the baseline (pre-test), after the intervention (post-test), and 2 months after the intervention period (follow-up). Results: Working memory (digit span and letter-number sequencing scores) and mathematics grades were significantly improved in the intervention group, as compared to the control group at the post-test session (p < 0.05) and remained in the follow-up session. Conclusion: Although this combined program is effective on improving the working memory and mathematic grades, for more academic achievement, further research is suggested. |
