Study Intervention
Active Control Group
Wait-List Control
The study intervention consists of a tablet-based cognitive training, targeting the cognitive domains mostly affected by AD. This training will be performed for three months (each day for 20 minutes). After three months this group will continue the training at home for six months and meet monthly for group sessions (i.e. booster sessions) on site.
This control study arm will watch documentaries at home for three months (each day for 20 minutes) , instead of performing the CCT and serve as active control group. This group will also train with the CCT tasks after these three months.
This control study arm will start with the CCT with a delay of three months and serve as wait-list control group.
