Abstract: Objective To compare the efficacy of different models of attention rehabilitation on attention deficits after acquired brain injury. Methods According to the training models, 47 patients with attention deficits were randomly assigned to 3 groups: computer-assisted training group(n=16), face-to-face training group(n=21) and control group(n=10). The training groups were given attention training once a day which sustained 30 minutes for 6 weeks. All patients were tested with the Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA) and the Loewenstein Occupational Therapy Cognitive Assessment Battery (LOTCA) before and 6 weeks after the rehabilitation. Results The performance of both the computer-assisted training group and the face-to-face training group significantly improved (P<0.05). The various of the scores was the most in the computer-assisted training group among them (P<0.05). Conclusion The computer-assisted training is a high-effective method for attention deficits.
