MAPSS-MS Study Stuifbergen,et al 2012 (N= 61: 34 treatment, 27 wait list control) METHOD: An 8-week MAPSS-MS intervention program with two components: (a) Weekly group sessions focused on building efficacy for use of cognitive compensatory strategies, and a (b) Computer-assisted cognitive rehabilitation program w/home-based training. • Results: Both groups improved significantly (P < 0.05) over time on most measures in the MACFIMS battery as well as the measures of strategy use and neuropsychological competence in ADL. There was a significant groupby-time interaction for scores on the measures of verbal memory and the use of compensatory strategies. • Conclusions: The MAPSS-MS intervention was feasible and well-accepted by participants. Given the large relative increase in use of compensatory strategies by the intervention group, it holds promise for enhancing cognitive function in persons with multiple sclerosis.
