The Aim Of The Study: was the assessment of the feasibility of a cognitive training program for employees of care 50+.
Method: A cognitive training program (13 h, 5 sessions) was conducted with 15 nurses of the University Hospital Munich (KUM). Acceptance of and effects on cognitive and psychological performance were determined.
Results: The measure was well accepted and received positive ratings. In addition, there were significant improvements in cognitive performance and self-efficacy.
Conclusion: The training program can be implemented on a regular basis; initial results providing evidence in support of positive training effects must be confirmed in future randomized controlled trials.

Implicit motor learning involves the acquisition and consolidation of motor skills without conscious awareness, influenced by various factors. Punishment and reward have been identified as significant modulators during training, impacting skill acquisition differently. Additionally, the role of a second declarative task in offline consolidation has been explored, affecting both stabilization and enhancement processes during wake and sleep periods.

Background: Cerebral palsy (CP) is a neurological disorder that can affect motor skills and psychophysiological well-being. Virtual Reality Exercise (VRE) improves cognitive and physical outcomes in patients with CP. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate the effects of VRE on attention, vigor, and decision-making abilities in adolescents with CP.

Introduction: Understanding strategic situations is essential in sports. There has been relatively little research examining the effectiveness of action observation based on visual cues in strategic situations. This study investigated whether action observation with visual cues can help performers understand the strategic aspects of complex sports by analyzing the effect of text cue-based action observation and graphic cue-based action observation on the accuracy and speed of cognitive information processing in working memory.

Learning tactile Braille reading leverages cross-modal plasticity, emphasizing the brain's ability to reallocate functions across sensory domains. This neuroplasticity engages motor and somatosensory areas and reaches language and cognitive centers like the visual word form area (VWFA), even in sighted subjects following training. No study has employed a complex reading task to monitor neural activity during the first weeks of Braille training.

Despite its success in adults, ABS in pediatric patients remains significantly underexplored, especially concerning the role of speech-language pathology (SLP) in these procedures. This study addresses this gap by providing a thorough examination of SLP interventions in pediatric ABS across various university hospitals, including those in Morocco and internationally.
