About the study

The goal of this proposed project is to evaluate the feasibility and preliminary effect of metacognitive strategy training to improve activity performance, cognition, and quality of life in breast cancer survivors with cancer-related cognitive impairment (CRCI). The other goal of this proposed project is to examine the effects of CO-OP on resting (rsFC)- and task-state functional connectivity as compared to an inactive control group.
