Abstract

Objective: To explore the perspectives and perceptions of persons with mild cognitive impairment (MCI), their caregivers, and healthcare professionals on computerized cognitive training (CCT).

Material and methods: Utilizing phenomenological research methods, 12 MCI patients, 11 caregivers, and 15 healthcare professionals were recruited. Data were collected through four focus group interviews and six semi-structured in-depth interviews conducted between March 2023 and June 2023. Colaizzi's analysis method was used to analyze the transcribed interviews.

Results: The study identified three main themes: (1) perception of CCT treatment, (2) emotional experiences with CCT, and (3) coping strategies. These themes highlighted various barriers and facilitators to CCT acceptance and implementation.

Conclusions: Emphasizing the popularization of CCT for MCI treatment is crucial. The study underscores the importance of addressing patients' emotional needs, providing psychological and social support, and offering personalized, multidomain non-pharmacological guidance to maximize CCT's effectiveness.
