Description
Summary:The present study aimed to examine the effectiveness of Captain's Log Cognitive Rehabilitation Program on Visual Working Memory and Fluid Reasoning of Students. The research method was a quasi-experimental design with pretest-posttest, follow-up, and control group. The research population consisted of 8-12-year-old students in the 2019-2020 academic year. 30 students were selected by the available sampling method, were randomly assigned to experimental and control groups (n=15). Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children-Fifth Ed. (2014) (WISC-V) was used for collecting data. Eight 30- minute sessions were performed individually on experimental group members while the control group did not receive any intervention. Data were analyzed using SPSS23 and repeated measures analysis of variance. Findings indicated a significant difference among posttest scores of the two groups (P<0.05). Results also remained constant after one- month follow-up stage. According to the results, it can be concluded that Captain’s Log program might be an effective intervention to improve visual working memory and fluid reasoning.
