| Abstract |
OBJECTIVE : To investigate the long-term efficacy of computerized cognitive training in improving cognitive outcomes among childhood cancer survivors. METHODS : Sixty-eight survivors of childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) or brain tumor (BT) were randomly assigned to computerized cognitive intervention (23 ALL/11 BT, age = 12.21 ± 2.47) or a waitlist control group (24 ALL/10 BT, age = 11.82 ± 2.42). Cognitive assessments were completed pre-, immediately post-, and 6 months postintervention. RESULTS : A prior report showed training led to immediate improvement in working memory, attention and processing speed. In the current study, piecewise linear mixed effects modeling revealed that working memory and processing speed were unchanged from immediate to 6 months postintervention (intervention β = -.04 to .01, p = .26 to .95; control β = -.06 to .01, p = .23-.97), but group differences on an attention measure did not persist. CONCLUSION : Cognitive benefits are maintained 6 months following computerized cognitive training, adding to potential clinical utility of this intervention approach. |

Attention Score in Context
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 23. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 26 June 2022.
All research outputs
#1,606,054
of 24,849,927 outputs
Outputs from Journal of Pediatric Psychology
#100
of 1,776 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#29,427
of 360,474 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Journal of Pediatric Psychology
#2
of 22 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 24,849,927 research outputs across all sources so far. Compared to these this one has done particularly well and is in the 93rd percentile: it's in the top 10% of all research outputs ever tracked by Altmetric.
So far Altmetric has tracked 1,776 research outputs from this source. They typically receive more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 9.0. This one has done particularly well, scoring higher than 94% of its peers.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 360,474 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one has done particularly well, scoring higher than 91% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 22 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has done particularly well, scoring higher than 95% of its contemporaries.
