Abstract
This article presents a case for the use of a more realistic and “ecologically valid” software in cognitive rehabilitation. Beginning with a discussion of the state of the field, the author discusses the variety of programs used in computer-assisted training or cognitive rehabilitation (CACR), along with suggestions for improving the realism depicted in the software in common use in rehabilitation settings. Two newer approaches to CACR are reviewed: one recently introduced by IBM under the title THINKable and the other a system employing interactive video disc. The relative merits of these newer approaches are reviewed, and the need for greater innovation and research is emphasized.
