Empirically supported treatments for schizophrenia now include a variety of psychosocial interventions, such as social skills training, vocational rehabilitation, and psychotherapy. As awareness of the functional importance of neurocognitive impairments in schizophrenia has increased, interest in treatments to improve cognition has grown. We review the literature on cognitive training (CT), which has been studied in 17 published randomized, controlled trials to date. The differential effectiveness of noncomputerized and computer-assisted interventions, with and without strategy coaching, and an environmental adaptation intervention, is examined. We conclude that the different types of approaches, whether computer assisted or not, all have effective components that hold promise for improving cognitive performance, symptoms, and everyday functioning. Our recommendations for further research, including the use of functional outcome measures and long-term followup, highlight the importance of improving ecological validity in this area of treatment research.
