|
Purpose: This study was to investigate the effect of executive function interventions for patients with frontal lobe damage on cognitive function.
Methods: A total of eight papers were selected from among papers published in the journal between January 2009 and May 2023 using databases from RISS, Pubmed, and Google Scholar. The search terms were “frontal lobe”, “executive function”, “intervention” or “rehabilitation”, “experimental study”.
Result: The intervention programs used to improve executive function in 8 studies, two were goal management training (GMT) interventions, one attention and problem solving (APS) therapeutic approach, and one Short Executive Plus (STEP). In computerized cognitive rehabilitation therapy, CoTras and Rehacom were used in one study each. Two studies of music therapy conducted interventions with Functionally Oriented Music Therapy (FMT) and Music-Supported Training (MST). The intervention not only improved executive function, but also reduced emotional agitation, improved basic cognitive function and activities of daily living, and generalized to real life.
Conclusion: Comparing the effects of the three interventions, computerized cognitive therapy was found to be more effective in improving lower cognitive functions, and it was mentioned that music therapy was difficult to maintain the subsequent treatment effect. Therefore, more research should be conducted to find effective treatments including details of executive functions in the future.
