Which training methods are effective for learning new smartphone memory apps after acquired brain injury? A pilot randomized controlled trial comparing trial and error, systematic instruction and error-based learning. | LitMetric

AI Article Synopsis

  • - The study compared three training methods (Trial and Error Learning, Systematic Instruction, and Error-Based Learning) for teaching a smartphone reminder app to individuals with brain injuries, finding that Trial and Error was most effective immediately post-training and at one-week follow-up.
  • - Participants showed increased smartphone use confidence after the Trial and Error and Error-Based Learning methods at six weeks, while no improvement was observed with Systematic Instruction.
  • - Overall, self-reported memory complaints decreased across all groups, but no single training method emerged as the best for app proficiency, suggesting that a longer training format might be needed for Systematic Instruction and Error-Based Learning to reveal their full benefits.

Article Abstract

This study aimed to compare the efficacy of three skills training methods (Trial and error TEL; systematic instruction SI; and error-based learning EBL) for training the use of a smartphone reminder app in individuals with an acquired brain injury. Participants ( = 38, M = 61.21 years, 71.1% stroke) were randomly allocated to one of three training conditions and trained over one two-hour session. Proficiency of performance with the trained app (primary outcome) was assessed immediately post-training, one- and six-weeks post-intervention. Secondary outcomes included generalization of skills, error commission, smartphone use frequency and confidence, and subjective memory complaints. Proficiency with the trained app after TEL was higher than SI immediately after the training ( = 0.87) and EBL at the one-week follow-up ( = 0.98). No differences were found six-weeks post-training. Smartphone use confidence increased at the six-week follow-up after TEL ( = 1.12) and EBL training ( = 0.91) but not after SI ( = 0.26). Self-reported memory complaints decreased across time for all groups ( = 0.30). There was no clearly superior training method for optimizing proficiency with the reminder app. The expected benefits of SI and EBL may not have emerged due to the single-session format of the training. However, smartphone training via TEL or EBL has the potential to address confidence-related barriers to smartphone use.
