Brain training for first responders: can a 5-Session class boost PTSD resilience?
NCT ID NCT03998501
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looked at whether a 5-session class teaching cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) skills can increase a brain pattern linked to resilience against PTSD. It involved 30 public safety personnel (like police or firefighters) who were already in a larger study. Researchers used brain scans and questionnaires to measure changes. The goal was to understand how the brain might be trained to resist PTSD, not to test a treatment.
