The CRiB2 Study
06 July 2023
Many people with bipolar disorder experience difficulties with their memory, concentration or their ability to make decisions and solve problems. These problems may make some everyday tasks or working difficult. Cognitive remediation is a psychological therapy which has been shown to help people improve their thinking skills. We are studying a computerised version of cognitive remediation, which focuses on linking the training of thinking skills to many real-world situations and problems.
