Theexperimental group received concentration training using a computerized cognitive rehabilitation program. Theintervention was performed three times a week for four weeks. The period of each session was 10 minutes.
The control group received the training with a virtual driving simulator. To assess cognitive ability, a virtualdriving simulator was used.
Results: This study shows the following results. First, the control group showed a significant increase ininterference task 1 compared with the experimental group. The control group displayed statistically significantspeed increases in interference task 1 compared with the experimental group. Third, the experimental groupshowed significant increases in the score and the speed of the ability to stay in one’s lane compared withthe control group.
Conclusion: This study showed that concentration training had positive effects on cognitive ability, but thelearning effect of the virtual driving simulator influenced the score and speed of interference task 1.
