Summary

This study tested a computer program called D-kit/EF1 to see if it could improve thinking and problem-solving skills in children aged 4-8 with mild intellectual disability. Eleven children used the program on an iPad for 30 minutes, five times a week, for 12 weeks. Researchers compared them to a group that watched educational videos to see if the program helped with tasks like switching attention and making decisions.
