Improving Cognitive Rehabilitation Outcomes

The investigators aim to compare CCT+MBLT with CCT+ION for improving cognition, functioning, and secondary outcomes in Veterans with mTBI+PTSD. Objective cognitive performance and everyday functioning are co-primary outcomes. Depression and sleep disturbance are target mechanisms and secondary outcomes include PTSD symptom severity, post-concussive symptom severity, cognitive symptom severity, and quality of life. Improvements in mood and sleep will be investigated as mediators. To explore for whom these interventions are most effective, the investigators will evaluate whether individual difference variables (e.g., demographics, premorbid functioning, treatment adherence) or baseline performance on primary and secondary outcome measures moderate intervention-related improvements in objective cognitive performance and everyday functioning. The investigators will enroll a representative sample of 144 post-9/11 Veterans with mTBI+PTSD at two VA sites (San Diego and Portland). Assessments will be conducted at baseline, mid-treatment (5 weeks), post-treatment (10 weeks), and three-month follow-up.
