目的：探讨工作记忆（WM）训练对成年脑卒中患者的影响。方法：随机试验，治疗组和被动对照组；18名职业年龄组的参与者（12名男性）（平均年龄54岁）被随机分为治疗组和对照组。干预包括为期五周的各种WM任务的计算机培训。在治疗前后分别进行神经心理测试和日常生活认知功能自评（CFQ）。结果：在WM和注意力的非训练测试（即测量相关认知功能但与训练计划中的任务不同的测试）上发现了统计学上显著的训练效果（Span board p < 0.05; PASAT p < 0.001； Ruff 2和7 p < 0.005）。CFQ测量的认知问题症状显著减少（p < 0.005）。结论：脑卒中后1年以上，系统的脑功能训练可显著改善脑功能和注意力。
Aim: To examine the effects of working memory (WM) training in adult patients with stroke. Methods: A randomized pilot study with a treatment group and a passive control group; 18 participants (12 males) in a vocational age group (mean age 54 years) were randomized to either the treatment or the control condition. The intervention consisted of computerized training on various WM tasks for five weeks. A neuropsychological test battery and self-rating on cognitive functioning in daily life (the CFQ) were administered both before and after the treatment. Results: Statistically significant training effects were found on the non-trainedtests for WM and attention, i.e., tests that measure related cognitive functions but are not identical to tasks in the training programme (Span board p < 0.05; PASAT p < 0.001; Ruff 2&7 p < 0.005). There was a significant decrease in symptoms of cognitive problems as measured by the CFQ (p < 0.005). Conclusion: More than one year after a stroke, systematic WM training can significantly improve WM and attention.
