Summary

This study looks at whether a computer-based working memory training program can help veterans with PTSD learn to overcome fear. About 120 veterans will do memory exercises or a sham version for 4 weeks, then have brain scans and fear tests. The goal is to see if the training changes brain activity linked to fear and could improve standard PTSD treatments.
