Digital Therapeutics for Attention and Wellbeing in Older Adults
This study is looking at how two digital tools, MediTrain and Worder, can help improve attention and overall wellbeing in people aged 60 to 99. MediTrain is a tablet-based game inspired by meditation, designed to help you focus and manage distractions. Worder is another digital tool that aims to improve visual skills important for attention and memory. The study wants to see how much these tools improve your attention over time, with measurements taken at the start, right after using the tools, and again after six months. We are currently unclear on the status of this study, but it plans to enroll 4000 participants. To join, you need to be 60 or older, speak English, and own a smartphone or tablet.

What this trial measures
- Change on the Mobile Continuous Performance Task (CPT) over timebaseline, immediate follow-up, and at a 6 month follow-up
The CPT is a 23-minute task, where participants are instructed to respond to target stimuli (squares at the top of the screen) and withhold responses to non-target stimuli (squares at the bottom of the screen). Performance will be quantified as: (1) mean reaction times, (2) standard deviation of reaction times (RTV), and (3) d-prime (comparing correct target detections or 'hits' to incorrect non-target detections or 'false alarms').
