Scientists test remote brain games to help young adults with psychosis

This University of Minnesota study explored whether two types of remote computer-based visual training could improve how the brain processes information in young adults with early psychosis. Researchers enrolled 152 participants aged 18-30, including both people diagnosed with conditions like schizophrenia and healthy volunteers, to complete observational tests and cognitive training entirely from home. The main goal was to understand how different brain training approaches might affect specific thinking problems linked to psychosis, not to prove a treatment works.
